The Shukar Collective Project (2011)

At night, the enthusiastic crowd gathered at the Uranus Garden (a former factory transformed into an open air cinema and music concerts precint) gives Shukar Collective a standing ovation. Shukar Collective play bear tamer music using spoons, wooden barrels or daraboukas, whilst a couple of DJ's add layer after layer of urban sound over this traditional music. It is this kind of eclectic environment that best describes what the documentary deals with: 'culture contact'.
