Description
On-screen: Klan breaks into a Jewish home and knocks over a table with a menorah and a meal on it
Description: Jewish prayer song used in a scene where the Klan breaks into a Jewish home and knocks over a table with a menorah and a meal on it; Steiner would have know the appropriateness of the choice of music here, although it is a very brief cue; Kol Nidre is linked with historical troubles the Jews have had with discrimination; music rises in pitch when the table is turned over at 33:24
