Frisco Kid

Rabbi Avram Belinsky lands in Philadelphia intending to travel to San Francisco, where he plans on starting a synagogue. Quickly relieved of his belongings by a group of con artists, Avram optimistically sets out alone on foot toward the Wild West. He gets into one scrape after another until he is rescued by a compassionate horseman named Tommy Lillard. Unfortunately, Tommy may not be quite as heroic as he seems, and it is still a long way to California.
