FOLI: There Is No Movement Without Rhythm

"Life has a rhythm, it's constantly moving. The word for rhythm ( used by the Malinke tribes ) is FOLI. It is a word that encompasses so much more than drumming, dancing or sound. It's found in every part of daily life. In this film you not only hear and feel rhythm but you see it. It's an extraordinary blend of image and sound that feeds the senses and reminds us all how essential it is." Thomas Roebers and Floris Leeuwenberg's stunning short film portrays the people of Baro in Guinea, and offers a window into their rich culture of rhythm.
