Hearing Tom Kenyon sing/chant/tone in person is the best, but this film brings that rare privilege to a broader audience. This film gives a generous amount of time to hearing Tom sing accompanied by beautiful visuals. If you let yourself really drop in it can be very moving. I appreciated the background story of Tom's life and discovery of his singing and the source it comes from. Viewer get to travel the world through his work to Tibet, beautiful places in Europe, and many workshop setting in the United States.
As a person who also does Medicine Singing I found this very heartening to see that Tom has been so successful in delivering his gift to so many receptive people. It was a great reminder to me of my own profound realization that occurred during one of his live workshops.
The part of my brain that edits/critiques as I am watching a film did want it to be a little shorter by the end. Sometimes certain scenes were repeated more than I would have liked, just enough to provoke the thought "Why am I seeing him walking up to this cave again?"
I highly recommend this film if you are even just a little bit interested in how sound can be helpful to people who want to live awake and aware of their full potential.
