    Meet Socalled, aka Josh Dolgin. He's a multi-disciplinary musician and artist whose unique blend of klezmer, hip hop and funk is blasting through the boundaries that separate music of different cultures, eras and generations. Socalled is unstoppable: a pianist, singer, arranger, rapper, producer and composer -- as well as magician, filmmaker and visual artist. The "Socalled" Movie is a kaleidoscopic portrait, offering up 18 entertaining short films about his creative process. Each short reveals something different, creating a nuanced picture of an individual who's artistically fearless. Shot in Socalled's Montreal neighbourhood, where Hasidic Jews and hipsters crowd the sidewalks, and in New York, France and Ukraine, The "Socalled" Movie is a multi-faceted depiction of inspiration, collaboration and transformation.
