21 min.DK/DocumentaryChildren's films

To Ravi it feels like flying when he jams with his brother on the rooftops in his village in India. Born into a family of wedding musicians with traditions going back further that anyone remembers, Ravi's dad taught him how to play the drums and brought little Ravi along on the jobs. Playing at weddings is not only a gift, however, it's also the bread and butter of the family. And when Ravi starts pursuing his own musical ambitions he clashes with his dad, his mentor and idol. In the end he stands up for himself to go his own way to become the artist he knows he is and he finally gets the support of his dad.
