Otto Lechner - Der Musikant

Between reciting a Kafka story accompanied by his accordion and paying personal tribute to Pink Floyd, Otto Lechner coaxes elemental musical power from his instrument. Bernhard Pötscher's documentary introduces us to the creator of these elemental events. And to a man who lost his sight completely as a teenager. Concert recordings are interspersed with personal conversations, carried by an unbreakable sense of humor: “I am privileged in that I can't see anything.”
