This early film biography of the founder of modern Zionism depicts a young Herzl learning about Jewish persecution throughout the ages, and developing his theory of political Zionism, which he saw as the only solution to anti-semitism. The film then follows Herzl’s efforts to implement his ideas by converting European leaders and Jews to his cause. (Written by National Center for Jewish Film)
