The legendary maestro Leonard Bernstein celebrity conductor, composer, and political activist is thrillingly captured in this archival documentary portrait by Douglas Tirola (DRUNK STONED BRILLIANT DEAD). With Bernstein’s 1989 Christmas Day concert in Berlin as a frame, Tirola crafts Bernstein’s remarkable career entirely from television interviews, news footage, home movies, audio clips, and personal letters.

“Makes the case that [Bernstein’s] charge to artists to lead the way in culture is timeless, and more vital than ever… the idea that music, and art more generally, can be an elevating and engaging experience for everyone, and that it has great potential as a uniting force in a divided world.”
