Filmed in 1983, AZNAVOUR: BREAKING AMERICA documents French “pop deity” Charles Aznavour as he moves his family from France to Los Angeles, while also attempting to make his name known to the masses in America. Known as “France’s Frank Sinatra”, we hear Aznavour’s distinguished tenor voice as we follow him to rehearsals, recording his songs in english, and performing on Broadway. Within this film Charles’ passion for his songs and stage work is displayed. The self-described story writer's respect for his craft is unmatched. The film features performances of some of Aznavour’s greatest hits such as "La Bohème", "Les Temps" and "Je n'attendais que toi" as a duet with legendary french singer Edith Piaf.
