A humorous and intimate account of the Leeds Jewish Community charting their rags to riches story from the ghettos of Eastern Europe to the self-made empires of Marks & Spencer, Burton’s Clothing and countless more. Combining drama with documentary, a 19th Century Russian Jew searches the city of Leeds for a people that have moved up the social ladder and out of the city slums, the younger generations losing touch with their origins. A tale of cat and mouse between present and past, we are guided by this wandering Jew as he retraces the final footsteps of his last, lost tribe.
