Winner of the Sundance Audience Award This Oscar-nominated film is the story of blind blues musician Paul Peņa and his triumphant trek to the forgotten land of Tuva and the mysterious art of Khoomei, or throatsinging, a seemingly impossible form of singing that produces multiple vocal tones simultaneously. Peņa taught himself the ancient art of throatsinging and later journeyed to Tuva, the land of its origin, to participate in their national throatsinging contest. The welcoming warmth and camaraderie of the Tuvan people and their vibrant traditional culture visibly provide a transforming effect on Mr. Peņa and his companions. "No fiction film could possibly have dreamed up this wonderful story." --Roger Ebert "Rare and wonderful." --Chicago Tribune 1 VHS cassette; 90 min.; color |
