| Brief Description: | Moishe Oysher stars as the Vilner Balabesi, the cantor who leaves his
position as Vilna Cantor in order to seek fame and fortune as an opera
star in Warsaw. He feels uncomfortable in his new environment and
yearns to return home to his wife, child and community. The film
provides a wonderful vehicle for Moishe Oysher's rich cantonal voice.
With Helen Beverly and Florence Weiss. "An artistic triumph for the
Yiddish motion picture industry." (New York Herald Tribune). Yiddish
