In a fascinating instance of cultural crossover, the Carpathian Gypsies have preserved traces of Jewish tradition in their own music. On a more personal note, when Godinger triumphantly carries the Torah to his boyhood synagogue, which has been re-opened after fifty years, he's accompanied by Gypsy friends who play a Yiddish tune.
Critics reviews. Zev Godinger a proste yid, or simple Jew, lives in the Carpathian mountains in the Ukraine. Zev has a special and rather harmonious friendship with his Gypsy neighbors. We see them in exhilarating musical “jam” sessions that demonstrate the subtle relationships between Gypsy and Jewish music.
