Overview

Golem is a 2018 production created by the theatre group 1927 and recorded for the BBC. The work features a blend of live performance, original animation, and music.

The production has a runtime of one hour and twenty-seven minutes and is classified as a drama. It was released in Great Britain on November 18, 2018. This 2018 project is distinct from other media titled The Golem, which include a film directed by Doron Paz and Yoav Paz that focuses on a woman conjuring a creature to protect a Jewish community during a plague in Lithuania. The 2018 production by 1927 is documented in the Movie Database as a separate entry from these other interpretations of mystical folklore. The project remains a notable example of recorded theatrical performance that utilizes multimedia elements to examine contemporary societal concerns regarding the influence of modern technology on daily life.
