This is one of those GOOD movies that got by me, produced in the 70’s, it’s about a Jewish community of a pre-revolutionary Russian Village. A Drama done in  Musical form. A poor milkman, determined to find good husbands for his five daughters, consults the traditional matchmaker and also has a word with God. It shows the hardships they had to endure living in an anti-Jewish country. Instead as looking at these as Jews, think of them as Traditional Catholics and you will find yourself as being in tune to their plight.
