FOOLS is the comic tale of Leon Tolchinsky, an enthusiastic young schoolteacher who arrives in the idyllic Ukrainian village of Kulyenchikov to find the townspeople sweeping dust from the stoops back into their houses and milking upside-down cows to get more cream. Hired to educate Sophia Zubritsky, the daughter of the town doctor, Leon falls in love with her at first sight, even though she just recently learned to sit down. Her father, Dr. Zubritsky, is hopeful that this teacher will be the one to break the curse of chronic stupidity from which the town has been suffering for 200 years.
