Crescendo

DVD - 2020

When world-famous conductor Eduard Sporck accepts the job to create an Israeli-Palestinian youth orchestra, he is quickly drawn into a tempest of sheer unsolvable problems. Having grown up in a state of war, suppression or the constant risk of terrorist attacks, the young musicians from both sides are far from able to form a team. Lined up behind the two best violinists, the emancipated Palestinian Layla and the handsome Israeli Ron, they form two parties who deeply mistrust each other.
