Enoch is a quarrelsome man who takes up the white man's religion and rejects the religion of his ancestors. According to rumor, Enoch has killed and eaten the sacred python, angering his father, the priest of the snake cult, with his rejection of culture. This sets off conflict betweenthe tribe and the church.
