Strained viewing, but powerful with it's own cultural style. Difficult not to appreciate it even if the acting is very heavy in the old European style of theatrical performance. Takes some adjusting to really get into the vibe of things. But when things started taking shape with ghosts, death dances and tombstones, it became almost a haunting Yiddish horror movie!

An interesting watch because it's just so different. The strangely beautiful music and songs aid the mysterious feeling of the whole thing, a quality that I suppose is almost impossible to avoid when dealing with Kabbalistic themes and their intriguing combination of logic and mysticism. A curiosity that is worth checking out.
