Iron Wills

Fredrik Mack owns a large glue factory in a fishing village in Northern Norway.

Among his subordinates is the telegraph operator Ove Rolandsen, a real ladies' man who shamelessly takes advantage of the affection that Marie van Loos, the local priest's housekeeper, has for him.

Rolandsen lives with the fisherman Levion, where, in his spare time, he experimented with and invented a glue that is better than Mack's.

Captain Henriksen takes advantage of the situation and tricks Rolandsen into proposing to Elise, who mockingly rejects him.

Ultimately, Rolandsen receives a lucrative patent offer for his glue and forms a business partnership with Mack.
