Abstract:
If there’s anyone who personifies the resilience, the vision and ultimately the contribution of the Jewish people, it’s Itzhak Perlman. The violin is the chosen instrument of Perlman, the vehicle he has used to overcome his own challenges and express himself to the world. In Perlman and his music, we hear the story of obstacles and survival, we trace the path of the Jewish people from the chaos of Europe to the promise of Israel, we see the comfort of home and family and witness how humor and talent combine with discipline and drive. Winner of the Jury Prize for Documentary Feature at the **Atlanta Jewish Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **DOC NYC Festival**. *"Director Alison Chernick profiles the violin virtuoso...but she also reveals a personality as expressive as his musicianship." - Pat Padua, **Washington Post***
