In this film, the modern adaptation of the story revolves around Boaz's company, B&B Manufacturing, in which Ruth applies for a secretarial position. The conflict arises when Boaz hires her immediately, despite not having any positions available. This leads to the utter frustration of his employees. In a frantic haste, they create a fake secretarial position, using the only available room, a filing closet, as her office.—Richie Johns
