The Pracht Inn

Directed by: Tamar Yaron
93 Minutes, 2014

An adaptation of Aharon Appelfeld’s novel Night after Night. In the sixties, a group of holocaust survivors live together in a hostel in Jerusalem. At night they meet in the corridor to drink cognac and play cards. The inn is run by Mrs. Pracht whose insistence on order and discipline and her disdain for Yiddish enrages the residents and ignites their trauma. Manfred, one of the residents, leads a quiet life. He meets a woman and a new relationship sparks. But the irrational atmosphere prevails, and an extreme decision leads to the inevitable end.
