"Without our traditions, our lives would be as shaky as a fiddler on the roof", siger mælkemanden Tevye, der med mange udfordringer forsøger at holde sammen på tilværelsen i det lille jødiske samfund i landsbyen Anatevka.

Musicalen "Fiddler on the roof" (1971) er instrueret af Norman Jewison med musik af Jerry Bock. Den er baseret på en række fortællinger udgivet i 1894 af den jiddische forfatter Sholem Aleichem. Det er den 27. film på Thomas og Mortens liste over de 100 bedste film.

Mælkemanden Tevye (Chaim Topol) bor med sin kone Golde (Norma Crane) og deres fem døtre i landsbyen Anatevka, en typisk shtetl i Ukraine. Vi er i begyndelsen af 1900-tallet, hvor antisemitisme og pogromer florerer side om side med den gryende socialistiske revolutionære bevægelse. Tevyes største bekymringer er dog hans døtre, der gifter sig og forelsker sig uden hensyn til de jødiske traditioner.

Thomas og Morten tager en snak om visdom, ægteskab og bruddet mellem det nye og det gamle.
