"Le Weekend" is a 12 minute documentary about Thomas Baggerman and his Gypsy Jazz ensemble . It portraits the ambition and determination the young musicians have while working on their debut album "Le Weekend". It also tells the story of passion and brotherhood on the holy grounds of Samois sur Seine, near Paris. Gypsy Jazz lovers from all over the globe gather there once a year to honor the legacy of guitar legend Django Reinhardt.
