Summary:

"This is an authentic film record of the dissolution of the 2000 year old Jewish community. Beautifully photographed, the camera moves from the Mellah of Casablanca to towns centuries removed from the 20th century. Here we see the Jews of the Atlas Mountains in their dress and demeanor, on the eve of their departure for a new life."-Container.
