THE CURIOUS CASE OF IVRY GITLIS

Directed by : Gaï Tordjman

Paris, 2016. At two in the morning, a young filmmaker in crisis meets his 93-year-old neighbor — the legendary, mercurial violinist Ivry Gitlis.

Their unexpected bond ignites a five-year odyssey into the soul of a forgotten genius, to help understand why Ivry was virtually erased from the official records.

The investigation leads the discovery of the only surviving copy of what is believe to be the greatest performance in violin history (thought to have been destroyed 43 years ago) and to the defiant and final comeback of a extraordinary man who refused to bow to anything but music. IVRY WHO ? is the intimate and exhilarating chronicle of friendship, genius, glory, decay, and the heavy price of freedom. Entire on one's own terms...
