2007 | Documentary, Portrait, Music Documentary | Director: Peter Murdmaa, Helle Karis

Portrait documentary about Eri Klas, a legendary Estonian musician, through his creative and private life.

See rõõm on kaasakiskuv ja ammendamatu, hoolimata sellest, et tema saatus pole olnud pilvitu. Ajaloo käik ja isiklikud kaotused, töötempo ja rahvusvaheline tuntus võivad inimese sisemises muusikas tekitada ebakõlasid. Eri Klasi kõla on jäänud puhtaks.
