- Synopsis:
The stranger-than-fiction true story of the father of electronic music is captivatingly told in this highly acclaimed and "endlessly surprising documentary" (Leonard Maltin) which garnered the prestigious Filmmakers Trophy at the 1994 Sundance Film Festival. Set against the backdrop of the instrument's ethereal sound, Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey is nothing short of sensational! In the 1920's and '30s, Russian emigre Leonard Theremin - the inventor of the world's first electronic musical instrument - had it all. His self-named theremins were in high demand from filmmakers and musicians around the globe; he was married to a beautiful American dancer; he lived among New York's social elite. And then, in 1938, he mysteriously vanished, not to be seen again for over 50 years - Actors:
