In the organizer's words:
"Film & Theater" - Cinema Quadrat and Nationaltheater Mannheim show this classic of Yiddish cinema from 1937, accompanying the NTM production of "Nabucco", with introduction:
DER DYBBUK
POL 1937. dir: Michał Waszyński. D: Abraham Morewski, Ajzyk Samberg, Lili Liliana. 122 min. YiddishOmdtU. FSK: n. A.
In a small Jewish town in the 19th century, two friends have made an agreement: Leje, the daughter of one of them, and Chonen, the son of the other, are promised to each other even before they are born. But 18 years later, Leje's father breaks the promise and marries her off to someone else - and Chonen's spirit ominously passes to Leje...
This love melodrama embedded in mystical and kabbalistic traditions is regarded as a masterpiece of Yiddish cinema - and today as a valuable insight into Polish shtetl culture before its annihilation by the Germans.
