One of many award-winning films directed by YALE STROM, this documentary explores the symbiotic relationship between the Rom Gypsies and the Jews who lived together before and after WWII in the Carpathian region of Eastern Europe. Prior to the Holocaust whenever there was a Jewish celebration, the klezmer musicians were usually not Jews, but the Rom. In fact, the Rom had played with and for Jews for so many years that some of them spoke fluent Yiddish. Running time: 58 minutes.
Presented by Frank and Sheila Rosenthal, as part of a 3-day residency with Yale Strom and his band Hot Pstromi. This includes two concerts, another film screening and discussion with Yale, and class visits.
