A visual meditation on the meeting of two completely different cultures. Film director Reto Caduff accompanies the Lovebugs band from Basel on a promotional tour in Taiwan. Concomitantly with the band, he immerses the camera in a world of images and tones largely unknown to most of us. Intimate and direct, the film shows the five musicians’ experiences in an Asian country unfamiliar to them. A
visual manifest of how music – as a universal language – can forge links between such vast cultural differences.
