Alan Lomax (1915-2002) was a song collector. For a big part of his life he travelled around the world with his recording equipment hunting for the prettiest folk songs. Lomax recorded ordinary people who gave their heart and soul in front of his microphone. In radio programs Lomax warned us that we were squandering age-old music traditions at rapid speed. The search is combined with conversations with colleagues and friends of Lomax. Throughout the movie we repeatedly return to a frail but happy 86-year-old Lomax. In this passionate and musical roadmovie we slowly... discover why folk music can be so pretty and what may once have possessed the legendary Alan Lomax. [show more]
