Unterlegt mit Musik aus aller Welt und wundervollen Naturbildern zeigt dieser Film fünfzig unterschiedliche Menschen und ihre bemerkenswerten Antworten, die über alle Grenzen von Kultur, Glaube, Kunst und Wissenschaft hinausgehen und unvergessliche Eindrücke hinterlassen. Macht Lust, den eigenen Großen Gesang, den Klang der eigenen Seele zu suchen.

About the film

Fifty voices. Twelve countries. One question.

From the Australian Outback to the San Juan Archipelago, from South India to the Swiss Alps, the question is asked of artists, scientists, and traditional elders:

“What is the Great Song for you?”

Infused with nature’s sounds and images together with music from around the world, fifty unique voices weave a timeless tapestry of embodied wisdom.

Second film in the award-winning Song Without Borders series, In Search of the Great Song, following the release of Shining Night: A Portrait of Composer Morten Lauridsen (2012), and preceding the 2019 release of Beyond the Fear of Singing.
