Documentary

In the second leg of our three-part journey through Asia, we'll be taken to Mongolian yurts, climb the pristine mountains of Kyrgyzstan, and embark on what is probably the longest detour of our lives toward Iran: We'll cross the vast steppe of Kazakhstan—and through endless NOTHING. There, we'll discover something we weren't actually looking for.

Journey with the musicians of the Berlin Philharmonic and their conductor Sir Simon Rattle on a breakneck concert tour of six metropolises across Asia: Beijing, Seoul, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Taipei and Tokyo. Their artistic triumph onstage belies a dynamic and dramatic life backstage. The orchestra is a closed society that observes its own laws and traditions, and in the words of one of its musicians is, “an island, a democratic microcosm – almost without precedent in the music world - whose social structure and cohesion is not only founded on a common love for music but also informed by competition, compulsion and the pressure to perform to a high pitch of excellence... .” Never before has the Berlin Philharmonic allowed such intimate and exclusive access into its private world.
