2018 • Directed by

Jacques Goldstein

Documentary, Music

"Jacques Goldstein goes on a quest for a spectre, a spectre that haunts Jazz. Who was Ornette Coleman, the saxophonist and composer ' If his seminal body of work is now - rightfully so - fully recognized, the man remained deliberately mysterious and enigmatic. The director visits and interviews musicians who owe him a lot. A portrait of Ornette takes shape as these sketches gradually unfold."
