Silver Jew
(Michael Tully, USA, 2007, 51 min)
Just over a year ago, the Red Sea parted and hell froze over as the once reclusive David Berman and his Silver Jews announced their first ever tour. The whirlwind inaugural jaunt, 15 years in the making, put Berman and band before sell-out crowds across the North America and Europe– including a headlining spot in front of 15,000+ Pitchfork Festival attendees last summer– and even took these wandering Jews all the way to Israel.
Director Michael Tully captures the Middle Eastern leg of the Jews’ tour in the new documentary Silver Jew, following Berman, his wife Cassie, and the rest of the band– keyboardist Tony Crow, drummer Brian Kotzur, and guitarists Peyton Pinkerton and William Tyler– around at two Tel Aviv gigs and a trip to Jerusalem.
