Shmuel Lesched Turned 100 years last year. As a young man, he escaped from Germany "before they closed the gates" (his words) in the 1930's.
He moved to Israel. When he came here he made up his mind to make people smile at any cost, so he started to play music...street music, dressed as a clown, singing for anyone that will take the time to listen. Some people even give him money and he does not mind being called a bagger. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. He calls himself "DerMusicklown". Now that he is 100, i asked him how long is he going to do that for, And he said "for as long as i can".

Shot between light and nowhere.
