The Ancient Law

Presented by Tallahassee Film Society at All Saints Cinema

Baruch Mayr, son of an orthodox rabbi from a poor shtetl in Galizia, decides to break from the
family tradition and leave the shtetl to become an actor. Due to this behaviour his father bans him from his family. Baruch, who joined a small burlesque troupe is discovered by an Austrian Erzherzogin (archdutchess) who introduces him to the director of the most important Theater in Vienna, the Burgtheater. Baruch receives a contract there and becomes more and more an assimilated jew. But his relation with the Erzherzogin isn’t approved by the Austrian court, so they have to end it.
