In an Alpine lodge, Erwin (Andrea Zogg) and his mute nephew Albert are joined by Martin (Carlos Leal). During a long drunken night Albert makes a doll out of a broom, some rags and hay, whilst Erwin tells Martin the story about Sennentuntschi. In the story, three lonely herdsmen made such a doll and the devil takes pity upon them and brings the doll to life.
The next day, a girl appears at their lodge dressed in the doll's clothes.
The film is loosely based on an Alpine fable called "The Guschg Herdsmen's Doll" but is commonly referred to as Sennentuntschi across Switzerland.
