Kodo
KODO
KODO - the Japanese word for heartbeat, is the name of a group of young musicians and dancers whose exhilarating performances of traditional and contemporary Japanese drumming have captivated a worldwide audience.
Filmed on Sado Island and Tokyo’s National theatre, the documentary showcases KODO’s music and explores their commitment to a unique aesthetic and collective ideal.
““You come away learning something about ecstasy in rhythm, and wonder.””
““This truly poetic film blends the simplicity of nature with the art of age-old drumming in a splendid manner.””
