How Music Plays Us (2024)
What is it that gives music its unique power? And what, exactly, do we mean when we say that music is magical? These are some of the questions director Mats Andersen sets out to answer in his new film. HOW MUSIC PLAYS US is a scientific documentary which takes us from the studios of some of today’s most prominent Norwegian musicians (Aurora Aksnes, Kjetil Møster, Jonas Benyoub) and way back to the early stages of human evolution where the physiological, mental and psychological foundation for our love affair with music was laid.
