Behind Being Documentary Premiere
Behind Being is a documentary-short that explores the hidden power of art & culture, rooted in community. In 2012, I explored the beautiful and mysterious islands of Bali and Java, Indonesia, attending ceremonies, visiting shamans and observing tradition being passed-on through Balinese gamelan and dance practices. I was captivated by the strong sense of identity of the people and a way of life rooted in community. I was given the opportunity to interview artists and community leaders such as, a master mask carver, a master batik artist, a culture-conservationalist and a DJ who is re-imagining ancient Javanese poetry into hip-hop form. The film integrates insightful interviews with dynamic visuals to reawaken memory of a spiritually-connected, community-based way of life.
