such a bear? A search of several years is about to begin, during which
the artist has to continuously adapt his plans. A narrative is

DIRECTION, CAMERA, SOUND, EDIT

In the Fall of 2010, Swiss musician Simon Berz and Dutch artist Kaspar
Koenig travelled to New Orleans for an art project, consisting of
building instruments from trash and inviting local musicians to
improvise with them. The film uses footage from these concerts,
interviews with the musicians and scenes of New Orleans street life,
rituals and celebrations to explore the confluence of creative music,
the creative process and the creative energy that draws these musicians
and keeps them here in the wake of disaster.
