Michael Franti - I know I'm not alone

Pour ceux qui connaissent le musicien Michael Franti (Beatnigs, The disposable heroes of hiphoprisy, Spearhead), il est devenu cinéastre! Je reviens de son spectacle ce soir à Ottawa qui était aussi le lancement du DVD I know I'm not alone...

A musician's journey through war in the Middle East

Armed with an acoustic guitar and a video camera, musician Michael Franti takes us on a musical journey through war and occupation in Iraq, Israel and Palestine. Along the way he shares his music with families, doctors, musicians, soldiers and everyday people who in turn reveal to him the often overlooked human cost of war.

Told in their own words, this film provides a rare glimpse into the lives of those who are affected by war the most. Michael’s storytelling and songs masterfully weave the film into a visual and musical tribute to the resilience of the human spirit.

Si vous etes à Montréal Vendredi le 17, ou Halifax le 18, check this out! Il fait jouer son film, prend quelques questions et fait ensuite un spectacle acoustique. C'était un de les meilleurs shows que j'ai vu. Sinon, gardez un oeil ouvert pour son DVD! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
