Sholem Aleichem: Laughing in the Darkness Soundtrack (2011)

Synopsis

A fascinating portrait of the great writer whose stories unfolded on the basis of the Broadway musical Fiddler on the Roof. Sholem Aleichem: Laughing in the Darkness tells the story of the rebellious genius who created a whole new literature. Plunging the depths of a Jewish world locked in crisis and on the cusp of profound change, he captured that world with brilliant humor. Sholem Aleichem was not just a witness to the creation of a new modern Jewish identity, but one of the very men who forged it.
