A young Jewish man is torn between tradition and individuality when his old-fashioned family objects to his career as a jazz singer. This is the first full length feature film to use synchronized sound, and is the original film musical.
Jack Robin must choose between the sacred melodies of his heritage and the syncopated rhythms of a rising stardom. This landmark production shatters the silence of the era by introducing synchronized sound to the cinematic experience.
