A brand-new restoration of this classic melodrama captures the sentimental, emotional characters, the convoluted plots, and the fantastic coincidences which dominated the Second Avenue Yiddish theaters.  Motl, a poor laborer, loving husband and new father, leads cloakmakers in a strike for better working conditions. When he is severely injured by strikebreakers, his wife, Esther, and infant son are left destitute. Featuring a number of richly-rendered, beautiful Yiddish songs.
