    Synopsis

    In March 2020 25 young musicians from the Bolivian Experimental Orchestra for Indigenous Instruments OEIN came to Germany. Due to the covid pandemic, their concerts were canceled and then Bolivia shut down the borders – and the musicians were stuck in a Music Academy in Brandenburg for 3 months. Together with german colleagues, they face the crisis improvising contemporary music. By leaving the stage to the musicians, the camera becomes part of the improvisation, also opening up the question of how music can be filmed. A film about music as a form of communication in a state of exception.
