Summary
A reconstructed version of the sound film Hebräische Melodie, featuring the violinist Andreas Weissgerber in Jerusalem playing Joseph Achron's work of the same name, a commission from the Jüdischer Kulturbund. The exterior shots were taken in the Old Town of Jerusalem in the winter of 1934-35, and the music recorded in Berlin in 1935. The film, for years believed lost, is presented here for the first time since World War II.
