The Woman In Brown

The fabulously wealthy Baron Arady discovers that his village rests on rich oil deposits and tricks most of the peasants into selling out. When a few stubborn Jews refuse to move, the Baron has them arrested and charged with the murder of a village girl. The Baron bribes officials, witnesses, and police while the innocent Jews seemed doomed to die on the gallows. But their brilliant attorney Karl Nemesch battles to prove in a court of law the vicious anti-Semitic lies perpetrated by the Baron.
