In an Ashkenazic shtetl in Poland, Yentl Mendel is the boyishly klutzy daughter and only child of long widowed Rebbe ("Talmud Teacher") Mendel, who teaches Talmud (a codification of Jewish Law) to local boys - and to Yentl, but secretly because girls were not allowed to learn the law in those days. When her father dies, Yentl is all alone in the world. She takes the momentous decision to leave the village and - disguised as a boy and calling herself by the name of her late brother, Anshel - seeks and gets admitted to a Yeshiva, to study the texts, traditions, subtleties and complexities of Torah, Talmud, etc. She befriends Avigdor who is engaged to Haddas, but her family discovers his brother committed suicide so they call off the wedding (in case Avigdor possesses the same madness). Anshel then finds "him"-self in the awkward position of being called into service as substitute bridegroom, so that the wedding can go ahead and Haddas will have a husband. It is a marriage that never gets consummated - apart from the more obvious reasons, because Haddas still wants Avigdor (though she eventually falls in love with Yentl, too). After numerous complications (including Avidor and Yentl falling in love with each other, briefly, after she reveals her secret to him, along with her bosom), the film ends with everybody getting what they always wanted - Haddas and Avigdor to live happily ever after with each other, while Anshel, now Yentl once again, goes off to America to pursue her dream of serious study in Yeshiva, where she will be able to study without needing to hide her identity as a woman. 美丽的哈戴斯。古典爱情。有些瞬间，你永远难以忘怀。无关男女有关禁忌。网上在线可以看的。《燕特尔》：犹太祝英台的另类爱情。永恒的一幕。艹，原来我看得这么认真。。 故事改编自以撒辛格的短篇小说，描述犹太人女子杨朵在二十世纪初的东欧为了追求梦想而女扮男装求学的故事。 在20世纪初，家住东欧的犹太女孩燕特尔非常好学，但当地的风俗禁止女孩上学，于是她只好女扮男装。在学校，有一个男生跟她很要好，但他俩的关系涉及到性取向错乱的议题。
