This delightful documentary answers the question: Why is “Fiddler on the Roof” one of the most beloved musicals in the world? During a several decades-long journey that traces the film’s origins and evolution, we meet the original play’s director, Jerome Robbins; a Japanese “Tevye” in a Tokyo production, an African-American “Golde” in a school musical, and Joel Grey with his recent all-Yiddish version.
Part of East Bay International Jewish Film Festival.
