Crossing the Bridge: The Sound of Istanbul

Winner of the Canvas Audience Award at the 2005 Flanders International Film Festival. It is a powerful, exquisite, sometimes haunting, sometimes touching, lyrical, sentimental (in the truest way) and absolutely stunning blend of music and musicians. Starting from the the first track by Baba Zula to the Kurdish singer Aynur (what a voice) to Siyasiyabend to the jam session in the small Turkish bar featuring Selim Seslar it is one of the most insightful documentaries about music I have ever seen.
