After World War II, Saul and Ruby, like many Holocaust survivors, made their way to America, where they built families and careers, enjoyed the golden years, and eventually settled in sunny South Florida. You might think this was the final act of their story, but then they had an exciting idea: why not start a klezmer band?

Their band does more than just bring back fond memories - it’s a vibrant celebration of life!

In this captivating and heartwarming film, we follow Saul and Ruby as they embark on a musical adventure.

Their journey is a truly inspiring tale about chasing your dreams at any age, discovering new purposes in life, experiencing the magic of music, and boldly standing against antisemitism and bigotry. It’s a charming story that reminds us all of the joy that comes from living life to the fullest! Director: Tod Lending
