‘Music is a place, and if you’re a musician, you go there.’ So says Philip Glass in this engaging documentary, which follows him and Mexican Wixarika musician Daniel Medina, both in their individual lives and as collaborators on some extraordinary music. The film captures them in rehearsal and performance around the world. What shines through is how music is not only an articulate and heartfelt form of expression, but also the main way these two artists communicate.
