Inside the walls of the famous Warsaw ghetto of 1943, amidst the methodic cruelty of the occupying Germans - andgrowing rumors of revolt - Rabbi Adam Heller (Mueller-Stahl) works to maintain calm within his cummunity while wrestling with his own sense of growing despair. But the sudden and angry reappearance of his son and a miraculous chance at survival for his daughter leads Heller to confront the ulitmate crisis of faith - and his one final shot at redemption - in this moving story from acclaimed screenwriter Rod Sterling. Review: great rare find - I received this as a Christmas gift and am so looking forward to seeing again. It is incredibly sad but so moving and the performances are phenominal. Review: Poignant - This Will Tear at Your Soul. Powerful, haunting, but beautifully crafted.

grim flowers of despair
"Lord send me tears", the Rabbi cries in despair in one scene. And he has many reasons. Trying to be a bastion of hope to his doomed flock. People dying around him. Others diseaparing onto trains to the camps never to be heard from again. His daughter is raped by an SS officer. His son returns from the dead a demon Oddly enough, he gets his tears and from a most unlikely source Holocaust films are by nature not happy since the genre is that of death and despair. Yet this film does give us hope in the end.

Poor acting, poor dialogue. Donโt bother.
I idid not like this show. But I was able to follow it. I donโt know who is writing the screen play for this but I think it is for the young folks who do not know what quality is. I never felt a thing for these Jewish people, I did not care. What a shame as I have been searching for quality stories of the Holocaust and what the Jews went through. This is not one of them.

More like a play than a movie
First , I really wanted to like this movie even though I did not expect another Schindler's List type feature. The producers must have saved a lot on the very restrictive set. Let's not forget that this is the Warsaw ghetto but there are plenty of other movies which are not so claustrophobic. I'm sure this claustrophobia is more related to a limited budget than to the artistic message they want to send. 2 other things which in my opinion did not go well: The main character may be a good actor but he does not fit the physical description of a rabbi very well - especially his facial features. Without giving out the ending, I do not believe a father and especially a rabbi would have acted in the manner portrayed, but would rather have used his body as a shield for the endangered party in question. I realize I was somehow negative in this review - there's plenty of positives and I don't feel repeating the other reviewers.
