This is a sweet little film about a summer camp using musical therapy to reach the kids and adults with certain conditions.
Started two decades ago in the wake of the death of a young man named Ric whose live was improved by his connection to music. We watch as other people are helped by the therapy as the music opens them up and allows them to make connections to each other and those around them.
This is largely a deeply moving film about the power of music to heal and make the world a better place. Having family members with issues I could relate to the power of music to open people up.
As great as the film is the film has one flaw that, while not fatal, bothers me, and that is that it largely keeps all of the people we see sperate and apart from each other. Most other similar films connect up the people in a program, this film doesn’t really do that. It’s a minor flaw but I would have liked some interaction.
Minor quibble aside this film is worth a look.
