What happens

Chasie di jesojme (Chasia, die Waise, polnischer OT Sierota Chasia) war ein Stummfilm aus dem russischen Polen von 1912. Der Regisseur Andrzej Marek hat ihn nach einem eigenen Drehbuch realisiert, welches auf dem gleichnamigen, bereits im Jahr 1903 erschienenen Theaterstück von Jakob Gordin fußte. Die Schauspieler kamen aus der Familie und dem jiddischen Theater von Abraham Alter Fiszzon in Warschau. Die Titelrolle spielte Mania Arko. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
