Synopsis
A portrait of Josh Dolgin (a.k.a. Socalled), an unstoppable gay musician, magician, cartoonist, and filmmaker. Although Dolgin describes himself as a dilettante, Dolgin performs with rappers like c-Rayz Walz and Chilly Gonzales, and with virtuoso musicians like legendary trombonist Fred Wesley of James Brown band fame, violinist Sophie Solomon, and renowned klezmer clarinetist David Krakauer. Eighteen vignettes reveal an utterly original artist as Dolgin samples music that crosses many cultures, eras and generations, and mixes them with his own unique compositions that gets people on their feet dancing.
