In 16th-century Prague, a rabbi creates the Golem - a giant creature made of clay. Using sorcery, he brings the creature to life in order to protect the Jews of Prague from persecution.
VIBE
A hauntingly visual journey into a dark, mythical past. The film's stark expressionism and eerie atmosphere create a palpable sense of dread, exploring the dangerous consequences of man's hubris and the shadows of prejudice.
