Audience Member What an amazing experience this Documentry truly is. it's amazing to see people all over the world imbracing the opportunity to be involved in this film. Mark Johnson went all over the world filming people singing or playing a song, it shows you how powerful music truly can be and how it can connect and bring us together. Look out for grandpa Elliot what a beautiful soul, there should be more people like him in the world. and Tula one of the most beautiful and amazing women I've ever seen and what a voice she has.
