Drum legend Billy Cobham takes us in this documentary from the bandstands of the Western world to the primal music of African origin with kids in a Brazilian community in Salvador de Bahia and on to the completely secluded world of musical experiences of autists. These different worlds are yet connected in a mystical and secret way. The relation between the collective and the individual consciousness becomes obvious when the symbiosis is achieved. For most people music is a marvelous experience and part of their life whether or not they play an instrument themselves. They understand music and rhythm as a fundamental communication tool of mankind.
