Django

In the midst of Nazi-occupied Paris, a young Romani jazz musician named Django Reinhardt must choose between his art and his survival. His music, considered degenerate by the Third Reich, is his only solace and escape from the oppressive regime. But when he's forced to flee to Germany, he must confront the harsh reality of his people's persecution and decide whether to use his talent as a form of resistance or conform to the Nazi's demands. A powerful and inspired story about the power of music and the human spirit.
