Gidon Kremer — Finding Your Own Voice

Latvian violinist and orchestra conductor Gidon Kremer (born 1947) is one of the greatest violinists of the twentieth century. As an original and masterful performer, he is a shining light in the world of classical music. This observational documentary gives Kremer a voice and depicts a poised and reflective man, impervious to the affectations of celebrity. For a year, director Paul Smaczny followed the great conductor as he led his Kremerata Baltica Chamber Orchestra in Paris and performed as a soloist in Moscow and Tokyo. A splendid portrait of a free and committed artist.
