Accordion Tribe Winner of the Swiss Film Prize for Best Documentary in 2005. This Austrian film highlights the tour of five extraordinary musicians from different countries who formed an accordion orchestra to share their sound around the world. I would have loved lthis film even if I didn’t love the accordion. But because I do, I adored it.
