Charlie Haden

Antonio es un profesor que utiliza las canciones de The Beatles para enseñar inglés en la España de 1966. Cuando se entera de que su ídolo John Lennon está en Almería rodando una película, decide viajar hasta allí para conocerle. En su ruta recoge a Juanjo, un chico de 16 años que se ha fugado de casa, y a Belén, una joven de 21 que también aparenta estar escapando de algo.

Throughout his career, Haden has constantly sought to transcend the boundaries of modern music. Widely considered to be among the greatest ever jazz bassists, Haden has contributed pivotal music to a stunning scope of genres: avant-garde, small group, big band, world music, folk and gospel, to name but a few. From the get-go it was clear for both director and subject that the film had to go beyond the generic filmed music story: an intimate look at the music and life of one of Jazz’ most inspiring and influential musicians. With access to Haden’s own personal archive, film sequences shot during concerts and recording sessions, interviews with an incredible selection of friends and collaborators and great archival footage, the documentary will please diehard jazz fans as well as the newly initiated.

Filmmaker Larry Weinstein stages a wide range of performances in tribute to the compositions of Kurt Weill.

La película se enfoca en la lucha y los triunfos de Ornette Coleman, así como en la extraordinaria inteligencia que fecundó su creatividad y aseguró su éxito. El pietaje de Clarke incluye escenas de Ornette conversando con familiares y amigos, fragmentos de entrevistas, riffs y viajes, así como pietaje de sus presentaciones —en su ciudad natal (Fort Worth, Texas), en Nueva York, en Marruecos y demás lugares— y constituye el recuento más exhaustivo de su carrera disponible hasta ahora. Aclamada por los críticos cuando se estrenó en 1985, la película resulta todavía más importante en nuestros días. La influencia de Coleman ha ido aumentado en los últimos años, a la par que la interpretación que Clarke hizo de su vida resulta más actual que nunca

The emotional story of an adulterous relationship between a journalist and a teacher.
