New England Premiere

Director: Pavel Jandourek, Czech Republic, 2007, 100 min., Narrative, 35mm

Three children – Alena, David and Ondra – join the charismatic treasure-seeker Aaron Cohen, a Jewish Indiana Jones, in search of Prague’s mythical Golem and the legendary Stone of the Sages. Created out of clay in the 1500s by the Chief Rabbi (or Maharal) of Prague, the silent Golem’s purpose was to protect the Jewish community. Filmed on location in Prague, Maharal’s highlights include an ancient water castle, an art theft, strange beings from long ago … and a car chase! Czech with subtitles

Note: For ages 10 and up.
