Fiddler’s Journey to the Big Screen
USA2022documentary88'Międzynarodowy konkurs DocFilmMusic (2022)
Last year we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the screening of one of the most popular musicals. Director Norman Jewison launched an impressive production process and recruited many talents to work on this project, which resulted in three Oscars and the film becoming remarkably popular. With the participation of its creators (and not only), the documentary tries to explore the phenomenon of the cinema version of ‘The Fiddler of the Roof’. It presents a variety of contexts related to its development, including literature, film, politics, history and obviously music. The story is narrated by an actor, Jeff Goldblum.
