In Colombia's northern Magdalena Valley, small children learn to play the accordion at their father's knee while hundreds of professional practitioners, sometimes several generations of accordeoneros in the same family, perform dazzling feats of musical prowess at social events and duel for bragging rights at annual festivals. This film documents the legendary six-day music festival that takes place once every 10 years in the Caribbean coastal market town of Valledupar and focuses on the fierce competition among Colombia’s top accordion virtuosos for the undisputed “Accordion King” title and crown.

Also showing on Sunday March 14th at 7:15 at the Tower Theater
