A young man returns from
Kyiv to his rural shtetl to settle old feuds and reunite with the
love of his life, who is betrothed to the rabbi’s successor. This
single-take film (like Sam Mendes’ 1917),
shot in expressionistic black and white, captures a day in the life
of a Jewish village in 1941 on the eve of its eradication. The
Yiddish-speaking cast (including Moshe Lobel, from Broadway’s Fiddler on the
Roof in Yiddish, and Saul Rubinek) brings a vanished
world back to vibrant life, discussing, debating, and fighting over
questions of Jewish tradition and modernity that feel contemporary in
their urgency.
