The work begins by depicting the weaver Mann, who is falsely accused of theft after his friend betrays him, forcing him to break off his engagement and leave his hometown. The weaver Mann, utterly despairing of both gods and humans, becomes filled with resentment and grows cold and ruthless, making the accumulation of wealth the essence of his life and becoming a complete miser. However, after fifteen years of saving, all his money is stolen, leaving the weaver Mann penniless. In his attempt to end his life, the weaver Mann's life is changed by a three-year-old child. He takes in the abandoned child, and his desolate heart gradually becomes surrounded by the warmth of humanity, finding new meaning in life.
