Against the Will of the Fathers

45 min, Drama, Soviet Union

Against the will of the fathers (1926) was shot based on the story of Sholom Aleichem "Blood Stream", which talks about the participation of Jews in the 1905 revolution. The first version of the film, entitled "Mabul," was banned by the Soviet government. The 5-part version of the film has survived: a version modified by the will of censorship with other names of the characters, an updated storyline, a more positive attitude and a happy ending. The finale of the final reel shows the mass scenes of the revolutionary struggle in St. Petersburg, the scene of the Jewish pogrom.
