Greenville Jewish Film Festival Summerfest 2019 

"Fiddler, Miracle of Miracles"

The origin story behind one of Broadway's most beloved musicals, Fiddler on the Roof, and its creative roots in early 1960"s New York, when "tradition" was on the wane as gender roles, sexuality, race relations and religion were evolving.  For the first time, intimate interviewswith the show's creators reveal how the tremendous success and impact of Fiddler and its subsequent film adaptation is most appropriately viewed through the lens of the social upheaval and change in mid-20th century America.  Yet, as the film shows the true wonder of wonders and miracle of Fiddler is that the audiences world-wide and for the last half century claim the story as their own.
