- Summary:
- Born in New York City, Soh Daiko has taken the traditional festival drumming known as taiko from its Japanese homeland and drawn inspiration from the living world cultures surrounding it. This is the story of a collective drumming community and an empowering Asian American art form, from it beginnings in the basement of the New York Buddhist Church in 1979, as told by its founders and its former and present members. A fascinating and memorable documentary about the committed and impassioned life of a New York taiko group directed by Minette Mangahas.
