Leandro is a frustrated Jewish wedding cameraman with no interest in his family’s religion. But when he falls in love with klezmer-playing clarinettist Paloma, he fabricates a documentary project on klezmer music in order to spend time with her. The film takes him through Eastern Europe in search of lost klezmer melodies that have been safeguarded by the Romani who lived alongside the Jews before the Second World War.
