SYNOPSIS
Tevye, a poor Jewish milkman, lives with his wife and five daughters in Anatevka, a small village in Ukraine. They have no country nor land, and are wandering from place to place, but Tevye is happy with his wife and five daughters, sustaining the traditions of his ancestors.
In Jewish tradition, it is very important to get married through a process of matchmaking. Tevye is planning to marry his first daughter, Tzeitel, to a wealthy but old butcher, according to this tradition, but Tzeitel was already in love with a poor tailor and childhood friend, Motel. His second daughter, Hodel, declares she will marry Perchik, a radical revolutionary who insists the world needs to change. Even the third daughter, Chava, falls in love with Fyedka, a Russian soldier who tries to suppress the Jews.
