    An insightful journey into the world of accordion music
    What an effort filmmaker Roberta Cantow has made to find all those people, gather all that material, and pull it together in a story about the great tradition of accordion music. Baltic, Cajun, Mexican. Rural, urban. In bars and cemeteries and public parks. So much wonderful music, demonstrating the wide range of musical styles, nationalities, and possibilities. Not to mention the beauty of the instrument itself in all its permutations. I especially enjoyed the impressionistic sections in which Cantow offers a variety of nature images as a background for the music. Those may be the sections that resonate most for me, where I felt so very moved by the beauty of the languid details.
