What We Talk About When We Talk About Music

PRODUCTION | COLOR GRADING | VISUAL EFFECTS
What is it that gives music its unique power? And what exactly do we mean when we say that music is magical?
 
WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT MUSIC is an artistic & scientific documentary which takes us from the studios of some of today’s most prominent Norwegian musicians (Aurora Aksnes, Kjetil Møster, Jonas Benyoub) and way back to the early stages of human evolution where the physiological, mental and psychological foundation for our love affair with music was laid.


The film is directed by Mats Andersen and is the first fully independent production by Rebel Unit.
