In 1905, Tevye, a poor Jewish milkman living in the Ukrainian village of Anatevka, a typical shtetl in the Pale of Settlement of Imperial Russia, compares the lives of the Jews of Anatevka to a fiddler on the roof, using tradition to scratch out a pleasant, simple tune without breaking their necks. Tzeitel loves her childhood sweetheart, the tailor Motel Kamzoil, and frantically begs her father not to make her marry Lazar.
