Bali: Beats of Paradise
Love - it's more than a relationship between two people. It is a connection between two souls that embodies a passion for music and culture. Bali: Beats a Paradise is a story of this profound and irreplicable love. This film explores the story of Indonesian couple Pak Wenten and Bu Nanik - two artists who bonded over their love for traditional Indonesian dance and its accompanying musical style of gamelan. When they moved to the U.S. from Bali in the 1970's, Pak Wenten and Bu Nanik gained acclaim as ambassadors for their respective crafts. As the sun is beginning to set on this aging, yet ever energetic couple, they wanted to share gamelan and Indonesian dance one more time in an inspiring way before their retirement to Indonesia. They decided to break the paradigm and teamed up with Grammy winning musician and songwriter, Judith Hill and filmmaker, Livi Zheng. Their ambitious project is unlike anything else in the music industry: the creation of a music video that bends the rules of gamelan and Funk to create an awe inspiring music video set in Joshua Tree National Park. This film is the story behind the art and the music video. It is an unforgettable blend of documentary, love story, and genre shattering music.
