The Concert

An Uplifting Comedy About a True Band of Misfits.

A former celebrated conductor of the Bolshoi Orchestra works as a cleaner (during the communist era he was fired at the height of his fame for refusing to get rid of all his Jewish players). Then Andrei finds a fax - an invitation for the orchestra to play in Paris, in 2 weeks time, as a late minute replacement... You will not want to miss this funny yet sad triumph over disaster.
