A mere three years after the end of World War II, Czechoslovakian director Alfred Radok brought to the screen one of the earliest film treatments of the Holocaust.

Documentary footage is integrated with Expressionist drama to create this fully restored classic of Holocaust cinema. 98 min. Standard; Soundtrack: Czech mono; Subtitles: English.
