FROM A COMMENT ON IMDB: “Benjamin Zuskin was one of the great actors of the Soviet Yiddish theater. During the Anti-Semitic pogrom of the late 40’s, Zuskin was one of the ill fated members of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee who were arrested on phony charges of espionage and Zionism (this was a crime in the Soviet Union then), and later executed.”
