A Thousand Thoughts: A Live Documentary by Sam Green and Kronos Quartet

Transcending the typical live cinema event, A Thousand Thoughts quickly becomes a meditation on music itself – the act of listening to it closely, the experience of feeling it deeply, and the power that it has to change the world.

Teaming up with Oscar-nominated filmmaker Sam Green and Joe Bini to create a “live documentary,” the wildly creative multimedia experiment blends live music and narration with archival footage and filmed interviews with such prominent artists as Philip Glass, Tanya Tagaq, Steve Reich, Wu Man, and Terry Riley.

“It’s a pensive, rewarding, and touching experience,” Bruce Kasanoff wrote for Forbes after the Sundance Film Festival premiere. “You feel humbled and awed to watch these performers in action as the history of their lives—and of musicians who preceded them—flashes behind them.”
