Isaac Bashevis Singer (1991)
Scum.
Nobel Price winner Singer evokes a lost world: the Yiddish culture of Warsaw in 1906. Max Barabander, a Polish Jew, forsakes his adopted home of Argentina and returns to Poland, ostensibly to visit the graves of his parents. Instead, he gets involved with the criminal underworld. He engages in deceitful liaisons and shoots one of the women.
