The youth enters a small village monastery somewhere in Burma, led by its superior U Dahma. Zawana and the other novices are, as befits their age, playful and disobedient, and they find it hard to abide by the laws of the monastic robe. However, when U Dahma, who hasn't been running the monastery with a particularly firm hand, falls ill, the young man realizes that perhaps it's time to step out resolutely onto one of the paths and surrender to the school of life - and not only because his superior's death could mean the closure of the monastery.
