makes a brief and unexpected appearance playing in Sansa, a recent
French film directed by Siegfried (full name). See

Ivry Gitlis plays a supporting role in the film as a conductor and
violinist named Monsieur Click. As violinist he and Argerich perform
(in Tokyo) a brief excerpt from the Fauré sonata - and we also hear a
few bars of the Kreutzer. The film showed last fall at the Toronto
International Film Festival, and will be screened in March at the
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema at New York's Walter Readed Theater.
It's a French-Spanish-German coproduction, so it will be shown in
those countries at least, but so far it has not been acquired for
North American distribution.
