Võrratu visuaali ja erakordselt nauditava montaaži ning helikeelega film portreteerib erinevates maailma paikades tegutsevaid muusikuid, keda ühendab peale suure muusikalise ande nende saarerahva mõttelaad.

The Colours of the Islands - www.estdocs.com

Muhu saare saksofonist Villu Veski, Fääri saarte laulja Eivør Palsdottir ning Barak ‘Bird' Levi Hawaiilt ammutavad oma loomingus inspiratsiooni kodukoha imelisest loodusest ja ürgsetest traditsioonidest. Film keskendub muusikas peituvale koha vaimule ja paneb kuulma eriomaseid nüansse, mida kodukoha loodus muusikasse kirjutab.

 

This visually striking film portrays three musicians from disparate parts of the globe, whose common ground is not only talented virtuosity but also their heritage as “islanders”. Saxophonist Villu Veski from Muhu Island in Estonia, Faro Island singer Eivør Palsdottir and Barak “Bird” Levi from Hawaii all draw, in their unique ways, inspiration from their natural environments and age-old traditions. Underscoring each musician's works are subtle but expressive differences that characterize the spirit and nuance of their own island habitat. This film invites the senses to take flight.
