Synopsis
Reissue of this Methuen classic to tie in with a major new productionThe republic of Andorra is invaded by totalitarian forces.
The populace capitulates to the anti-Semitism of the aggressor and betrays Andri, the foundling son of the local schoolmaster.
But Andri it seems, is not a Jew at all
Andorra explores the mechanism of racism with the story of a non-Jew brought up as a Jew, who falls victim to anti-Semitic hostility.
