Summary: The story is set in pre-Revolution Russia, where Jewess Anna Mirrel bears the brunt of the Czar’s oppression of her people. Desperately seeking a passport so that she may escape to America, Anna is callously issued a “yellow ticket,” falsely designating her as a prostitute. She manages to overcome this government-imposed stigma with the aid of American journalist Julian Rolfe. Yellow Ticket was memorably remade in 1931, with Elissa Landi and a very young Laurence Olivier in the leading roles.
