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!

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing this amazing group of women perform live in 2020. I was also able to attend the Twin Cities screening of the film. How do one put into words when a documentary is so extraordinary?? These women came to St. Paul, MN from all over the world. Knowing of each other, but most had never met, some speaking no English. They all knew one common language, Taiko Drumming. They came from all parts of the world, not realizing that the world as we knew it, would no longer exist just a few short weeks later. This is an amazing and empowering documentary about the women of Taiko Drumming.
