Finding Her Beat screened as the final film of the Satisfied Eye International Film Festival and was a true crowd-pleaser!
A wonderfully constructed documentary that is painfully relevant right now, it wonderfully captures both the individual stories of those involved and the wider context which is so important to the over-arching theme.
In a time when the drive for diversity and sexual equality are (painfully) slowly making strides, Finding Her Beat shows the power of the individual and the collective in an uplifting, rewarding and inspirational film.
Set against the backdrop of the pandemic, which adds an extra layer of tension and drama to the proceedings, it's a film which deserves all the plaudits it receives and it's impossible to come away without feeling an overwhelming desire to try taiko drumming for yourself!
