These 10 stories all take place in the Jewish quarter of Budapest during the middle of the 20th century. The brothers Pressburger paint a gloomy portrait of the ghetto and its Jewish residents, suffering at the hands of fascist and communist powers. What finally emerges, though, is a tribute to resilient people living in the harshest of conditions.
