Maffy's Jazz Trailers

Maffy Falay, now a 90 year-old Turkish jazz musician, has left his homeland for Sweden at an early age, following his passion for music. In the 60’s Maffy became a popular trumpet player in Europe. He was coveted by such jazz legends as Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk and he shared the stage with Quincy Jones, Kenny Clarke, Francy Boland. Being among the few remaining members of a bygone generation, Maffy now leads a solitary life in his one-room apartment in the suburbs of Stockholm. "Maffy's Jazz" traces Maffy's relationship to music accompanying him candidly in different time frames, witnessing his alienation as he seeks to redefine his existence during a time when his generation, culture and music slowly fade away.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
