Private Project

THE JAR

Indecisive farmer Charlie wants simple things - to gain respect of the villagers and return his wife Betty's love, but does not know how to do it. Once he buys a strange jar, inside of which there is a mystical pale thing drifting in alcohol plasma. The jar's content fascinates the villagers, and each of them sees in it his own meanings and symbols. Charlie, as the owner of the relic, gets the desired honor and respect. But Betty and her lover Tom Carmody don't like this situation. They decide by all means to prevent Charlie and to expose his fake religious artifact.
