Synopsis

The title character is a quiet Jewish boy-turned-man coping with a
mysterious “pain” and very interesting times in the early 20th century:
forced to leave his titular home town and wander around the world in
service of the Tzar in two bloody wars, Fleische gets caught up in the
turmoil of the Russian Revolution and eventually decides to immigrate to
America, coming to terms with the “home-less” nature of the Diaspora and
discovering a resilient home within himself in the face of the massive
historical pressures of pogroms, wars, revolutions, and assimilation.
