June 5th – the film is now available on Prime, Google Play and Itunes. It’s a English speaking territory release only. Find our where it can be streamed in the “watch/buy” section.

I received an email from Brian DeCubellis, a great filmmaker from New York (Manhatten Night w/ Adrien Brody) and a really nice guy who also happens to be John’s neighbor. John mentioned Inside Scofield while they were walking the dogs, and Brian liked it so much that he came up with a splendid idea to promote the film’s platform release. So John, Brian and I had a chat about Inside Scofield, how this film came together, also about John’s career and the current status of jazz, among other things.

On May 26th we celebrated the Berlin premiere of Inside Scofield at one of Germany’s best known theatres, the Babylon. – Good times!

The big VOD release of Inside Scofield on different platforms, such as Prime, GooglePlay and Itunes will happen very soon! Although there is no specific date yet we’re aiming for a release around the end of March. Finally Inside Scofield will make it to all screens!

The screenings section was updated with a few smaller and bigger screening events for 2023. Check out if there’s one close by.

The film will be screened for the first time ever in Germany in the domicil Dortmund, one of the biggest and best German Jazz clubs, on Dec 13th, followed by a Q&A with Joerg Steineck. www.domicil-dortmund.de

I answered a few questions about the film and its origin in this interview by journalist and author Jared Feldschreiber (thanks Jared!) for TIMES of Israel.

Inside Scofield gets ready to launch into jazz!
The editing has been finished since a few months, but now we finally have a release date (TBA:next week)!

The reason for the delay: Clearing the music rights for an indie project like this was hard before but got kind of out of hand during the time of the pandemic. Also unforeseeable budget-miscalculations due to a general increase of costs made it very difficult to proceed according to plan. But – everything is cleared now, and I’m happy that most of you brought a great understanding to all of this.

This unintentional delay brought some unexspected opportunities as well: In the last few months I had the chance to conduct additional interviews with John’s musical family: Mike Stern, Bill Evans, Gary Grainger, Dennis Chambers and Pat Metheny will be part of the film, too. These interviews turned out longer than exspected and will be certainly quite interesting for some of you. Since I only used small bits in the film, I decided to compile them into a little series called “VOICES”, which will be available soon.
