Ein anthropologischer Trip durch Südasien

The world is changing at breakneck speed — and musicians are living through difficult times. We meet artists in the Maldives who perform in tourist resorts and describe how working conditions are getting tougher year by year. We meet musicians in Bangladesh who were imprisoned — and who, after the fall of authoritarian Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, are finding new hope. In Delhi and Bangalore we hear voices of artists pushing back against commercialization and the caste system. Some of them choose to remain anonymous. Their words stayed with us. We assemble them like a mantra — into an abstract sonic journey.
