About film
Director Rudolf Barshai is part of the constellation of the greatest 20th-century musicians. The Moscow Chamber Orchestra, which Barshai founded in the late 1950s, won over the audiences around the world. His regular co-authors included Sviatoslav Richter, David Oistrakh, Emil Gilels. At the peak of his career in 1977, Barshai emigrated to the West to be able to perform compositions that were banned in the Soviet Union. He conducted orchestras in Israel and Great Britain, in Canada, France, Switzerland, and Japan. Late in life, Barshai sits down in front of the director Oleg Dorman's camera and reminisces about his vagabond childhood, his young wartime years, his loves and losses, and about his legendary teachers, friends, and colleagues – Shostakovich, Rostropovich, Stravinsky, as well as about difficulties of emigration and about happy decades of uninhibited creativity.
