Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas
Watch Trailer
This unconventional and quirky musical documentary narrates the tale of a group of Jewish composers, such as Irving Berlin, Mel Tormé, Jay Livingston, Ray Evans, Gloria Shayne Baker, and Johnny Marks, who crafted the musical backdrop for Christianity’s most melodious holiday. It’s a remarkable story of immigrant outsiders who transformed into essential figures within mainstream pop culture. This generation of songwriters discovered in Christmas an ideal occasion to envision a more hopeful world, allowing us to believe in it, if only for a single day each year.
