Adaptation of the cult novel by Kurt Vonnegut, directed by George
Roy Hill and starring Michael Sacks, Ron Leibman and Eugene Roche.
Billy Pilgrim (Sacks) is a young soldier in the Second World War
who is captured by the Germans and sent to a POW camp. While being
taken there to be imprisoned he witnesses the firebombing of
Dresden, an event which causes him to be 'unstuck in time' and
results in him living his life simultaneously as a POW, an optician
in present day America, and as an elderly abducted resident of an
alien zoo on the planet Tralfamadore.
A documentary following the acclaimed pianist on his 1957 trip to
the Soviet Union. Featuring music by Bach, Berg, Webern and
Shostakovich amongst others, the film includes previously unheard
performances of Gould's concerts in Moscow and Leningrad, when, at
the age of 24, he became the first North American to perform behind
the Iron Curtain.
