The Woman in Brown (aka The Vicious Circle)

The fabulously wealthy Baron Arady discovers that his village rests on rich oil deposits and tricks most of the peasants into selling out. When a few stubborn Jews refuse to move, the Baron has them arrested and charged with the murder of a village girl. The Baron bribes officials, witnesses, and police while the innocent Jews seemed doomed to die on the gallows. But their brilliant attorney Karl Nemesch battles to prove in a court of law the vicious anti-Semitic lies perpetrated by the Baron.
