Sabbath in Paradise

Summary

Sabbath In Paradise

Klezmer, the traditional Jewish music, is currently enjoying great popularity. But what is Jewish music? What is actually happening today in the contemporary Jewish music and arts scene?

Sabbath in Paradise shows a kaleidoscope of Jewish life in present-day New York and gives an insight into the diversity of Jewish music between Hassidic Nigunim and free jazz. Through the complex inter-connection of cityscapes and music, of musician portraits and an old legend, Sabbath in Paradise reflects the continuity of Jewish life between orthodoxy and the modern world and gives the viewer the opportunity to experience different aspects of the subject and do this in an entertaining way.
