Description of the content The Budapest Klezmer Band celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2001. That’s when the shooting started and it lasted until May 2004. The camera followed the band from concert to concert, and that’s how its members could genuinely show – in a musical documentary – the trueful life that they lived.
