Sound Of Heimat - Deutschland singt

The documentary accompanies New Zealand musician Hayden Chisholm on a journey through Germany on the traces of "Volksmusik". With the clear and impartial view of an outsider he approaches German culture via melodies and lyrics, coming across an astounding diversity of traditional as well as modern regional customs and activities. His encounters include the Leipzig "GewandhausChor", a pub gang named "Singender Holunder", Cologne Hip Hop band "BamBam Babylon Bajasch", a yodel teacher from Allgäu, rock singer Bobo and the sisters of "Wellküren", who combine folk music and cabaret.
