Description: A winter's night, eleventh-century Spain. Young Shmuel Abinoam has lost his family and home, and is wandering through the streets of Granada. Suddenly, he is drawn to the sweet melody of a harp, floating from an open window. The music of the harp brings back memories. It provides him with a measure of solace and becomes the source of the salvation of Granada's Jews.
