“Alive Inside: A Story of Music and Memory”
“Alive Inside” er en gledesfylt filmatisk utforskning av musikkens evne til å gjenoppvekke våre sjeler og avdekke de dypeste deler av vår menneskelighet. Filmskaper Michael Rossato-Bennett har samlet forbløffende opplevelser av personer som har blitt revitalisert gjennom den enkle opplevelsen av å lytte til musikk. Hans kamera fanger inn den unike menneskelige forbindelsen vi har til musikk og hvordan dennes helbredende kraft kan triumfere der den reseptbelagte medisin kommer til kort.
Filmskaperen besøker familiemedlemmer som har blitt vitne til den mirakuløse effekten som individualisert musikk har på deres kjære. Han tilbyr innsiktsfulle intervjuer med eksperter innen området. Bl.a. den velkjente nevrologen Oliver Sacks, de visjonære helsearbeiderne Dr. Bill Thomas, Dr. Al Powers, Naomi Fiel, og den internasjonalt anerkjente musikeren Bobby McFerrin (“Don’t Worry, Be Happy”).
En oppløftende filmatisk utforskning av den forunderlige forbindelsen mellom musikken og menneskesinnet. Filmens følelsesladde historier etterlot publikum nynnende, klappende og jublende på Sundance Film Festival der den vant publikumsprisen.

ALIVE INSIDE is a joyous cinematic exploration of music’s capacity to reawaken our souls and uncover the deepest parts of our humanity. Filmmaker Michael Rossato-Bennett chronicles the astonishing experiences of individuals around the country who have been revitalized through the simple experience of listening to music. His camera reveals the uniquely human connection we find in music and how its healing power can triumph where prescription medication falls short.
This stirring documentary follows numerous visionaries in healthcare including social worker Dan Cohen, founder of the nonprofit organization Music & Memory, as he fights against a broken healthcare system to demonstrate music’s ability to combat memory loss and restore a deep sense of self to those suffering from it. Rossato-Bennett visits family members who have witnessed the miraculous effects of personalized music on their loved ones, and offers illuminating interviews with experts including renowned neurologist and best-selling author Oliver Sacks (Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain), healthcare visionaries Dr. Bill Thomas, Dr. Al Powers, Naomi Fiel, and musician Bobby McFerrin (“Don’t Worry, Be Happy”).
An uplifting cinematic exploration of music and the mind, ALIVE INSIDE’s inspirational and emotional story left audiences humming, clapping and cheering at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award.
