This documentary should be seen be every living soul on the planet! Why? Because everyone knows we’re all one human family, trouble is it’s a dysfunctional one. And unfortunately, we live in an egotistical era where the foremost thought in our minds is ‘What About Me?’
On this visionary expedition, the double Grammy nominated 1 Giant Leap visits over 50 locations worldwide, exploring through music, the complexities of human nature on a global scale.
The backbone of the project is the music these two make. Each masterpiece begins with a pre-composed backing track which then grows and develops as new layers are added. International stars like Alanis Morissette, KD Lang, Michael Stipe, Will Young, Maxi Jazz and Michael Franti along with Bedouin musicians, Chinese rappers, Gabonese Pygmies and Tuvan Throat singers are seamlessly mixed and incorporated into the original 1 Giant Leap musical vision. Interwoven with theses musical jewels are words of wisdom regarding our collective insanity from an exquisite assortment of personalities including: Tim Robbins, Deepak Chopra, Billy Connolly, Sir Bob Geldolf, Susan Sarandon, Eckhart Tolle, Neale Donald Walsch, Noam Chomsky and many more.
Why are we so ego driven? Needy in relationships? Insatiable in desire? Addicted to status? Wounded by childhood? And unable to stop thinking? Amongst all this, how is it we still manage to be inspired and beautifully creative? When Jamie and Duncan left on their global journey, they thought they were in control, but how could they predict what would happen when they sought wisdom from the cream of the world’s thinkers, writers and entertainers, as well as many people just getting on with their lives. Unscripted, with no storyboard, these conversations reveal how we are connected not only through our creativity and our beliefs but most of all through our madness.
‘What About Me?’ is a poignant, emotional and entertaining time capsule of humanity at its most inspirational. Five stars for this unique music, TV and film project!
‘… an amazing film by two genius filmmakers.’ - Bono (U2)
