A reconstructed version of the sound film "Hebräische Melodie," in which violinist Andreas Weissgerber plays Joseph Achron's piece of the same title in Jerusalem, commissioned by the Jüdischer Kulturbund. The outdoor shots were taken in the Old City of Jerusalem in the winter of 1934-35 and the music was recorded in Berlin in 1935. The film was considered lost for years.
