Trojan Jazz
The film tells how, in an extremely difficult political situation — between two crises, the Berlin and the Caribbean, the Benny Goodman Orchestra arrived in the Soviet Union. For the Soviet people in 1962, it was a tremendous breakthrough both in the relationship between the countries and in the opportunity not only to hear jazz music, which was semi-forbidden in those years, but also to see and get to know real Americans.
