June 1961, New York City. Legendary jazz pianist Bill Evans has found his musical voice and created the perfect trio, including bassist Scott LaFaro, said to be his soulmate through music. A residency at New York's Village Vanguard culminates in the live recording of two of the greatest jazz records of all time in a single night. Ten days later, LaFaro dies in a car crash. Numb with grief, Evans stops playing.

Everybody Digs Bill Evans is the story of what happened next to one of the most influential and tragic figures in twentieth-century music. The film won the Silver Bear for Best Director at the Berlinale.

Filmography: The Gold Machine (2022, doc), Patience (2012, doc), Joy Division (2007, doc).
