Павла Флейчер A Film bv Pavla Fleischer In the summer of 2004, on a car journey in Eastern Europe, Pavla Fleischer met and fell in love with Eugene Huetz, lead singer of New York"s Gypsy Punk band Gogol Bordello. Captivated by his energy and his musical verve, and desperate to get to know him better, she decided to make a film about him. The Pied Piper of Hiitzovina follows Eugene and Pavla on their subsequent road trip through Eugene"s home country, Ukraine. It is an intimate portrait of a filmmaker with a passion for her subject, and a punk musician with a longing to revisit his past. Theirs is a journey which tests their relationship and challenges their perceptions of the music they both love.
