Athanase Pernath is a gem cutter in the Prague ghetto. In spite of himself, he becomes embroiled in the lives of his neighbors. Family feuds, swindles, jealousies and revenge lead Pernath to prison, while the threat of the Golem, a monster created by a rabbi and awakening every thirty-three years, hangs over the city.
Directed by Jean Kerchbron, The Golem leans on a strong ensemble — André Reybaz, Georges Douking, François Vibert — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
