In the Ocean
Bang on a Can, Steve Reich, Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Louis Andriessen
In the Ocean is unique in the genre of music documentary. With the cooperation of musicians who have never appeared before in the same film (Steve Reich, Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Louis Andriessen), it endeavours to explain the complex contemporary music picture of the past thirty years. Scheffer explores the relationship between American and European composers, personified in the film by the story of Bang on a Can, one of the most popular and vital movements in music today.
