It is called "Schultze Gets The Blues," about a German salt miner who plays polka accordion, and hears Zydeco one day. He ends up going to Louisiana. It has won tons of awards in Europe. Did anyone see it?

Will it be in big theaters, do you think, or off beat ones? Where did you see the trailer?

I haven't seen the trailer, but I could see a polka player hearing Zydeco as song from on high. I haven't heard enough Zydeco, but what folks from Louisiana do with an accordion is inspiring to me, and I generally hate accordion music.

The guy with the accordion is a relative of mine (Edwin Duhon).

Some bios of the members of the Hackberry Ramblers here: http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/makethemdance/meet.html

edit: of course, pretty much anybody with the name Duhon is related to me by a not too tenuous degree, but Edwin's a relatively close relation.
