Barbara's family is deeply religious and holds strict beliefs about the use of graven images, which are seen as idolatrous. However, Barbara is drawn to the world of art and begins to explore her creative talents, despite the disapproval of her family. As she struggles to reconcile her passion for art with her family's beliefs, Barbara meets a young man named Jack who shares her love for creativity. They begin a relationship, but their love is tested when Jack's father, a prominent member of the community, opposes their union due to Barbara's family's religious beliefs.
