Photographer Philippe Halsman became one of the most sought-after celebrity portrait artists of his generation, creating memorable images of famous personalities often jumping in midair for LIFE magazine. Before coming to the U.S., however, Halsman suffered a terrible fate. Set in 1928 Austria "Jump" brings us the true story of the first trial of a Jew by the Nazi government.

Philippe Halsman and his bullying father Morduch, share a troubled relationship, which turns increasingly sour as the two embark upon a hiking tour in Austria. When Morduch is found murdered, Philippe is charged and convicted of the crime. Is the assumption of guilt based on strong evidence, or on the Halsman family's Jewish faith?

    bad day at the office

    What a bummer - and a true story too - so doubling difficult to make a right dog's b/fast out of it , but they succeed here. Off power acting, iffy script and the worst sound dubbing you will hear in many an hour. Read the book instead.

    Terrible

    The only reason this has one star is because i think the actors on the set must have known how bad this was going to be and still persisted in making it until the end of the film.....something i did not have the patience for. Had this been better made it could have been an excellent film. Unfortunately it was anything but. Do yourselves a favour do not waste your time with this rubbish.
