# Tkies-khaf (1924)

1924 · 81 min · Drama · Poland


## Synopsis

Tkies-kaf is a partially lost 1924 Polish silent film. Set mainly in Vilna, it revolves around a vow made between two friends—Khaim and Borekh–that their future children shall marry each other. Many years later, the prophet Elijah, disguised as various characters, works to ensure this oath comes to fruition. These efforts are impaired by Borekh's friend Shmuel, who seeks to marry Khaim's daughter and keep Khaim's hidden fortune. The film's production was troubled by an initial lack of director; Leo Forbert's possible first pick, Sidney M. Goldin, was occupied by another project, leading head actor Zygmunt Turkow to volunteer to direct the project. Other prominent actors in the film include Turkow's mother-in-law Ester Rachel Kamińska, and his wife Ida Kamińska.
