Music by Kokava (documentary)

The documentary film Hudba od Kokavy (Music by Kokava) tells the story of the musical collaboration of the Roma band Sendreiovci with the world giant of film music Hans Zimmer. Few people have any idea that Hans Zimmer and his team stayed in Slovakia and that he recorded parts of the soundtrack for the film Sherlock Holmes, A Game of Shadows by director Guy Ritchie. Music unites people from different regions and social status and overcomes the differences between them. Even a “small” but talented and hardworking person has his place in the “big” music world. How is film music created? What are its specifics and creative processes? What is it like to be a Roma in Slovakia, in Kokava, in a godforsaken village? You will learn this and much more in the documentary Music from Kokava.
