32 Sounds is an immersive feature documentary and profound sensory experience from Academy-Award nominated filmmaker Sam Green (The Weather Underground, A Thousand Thoughts) featuring original music by JD Samson (Le Tigre, MEN). The film explores the elemental phenomenon of sound by weaving together 32 specific sound explorations into a cinematic meditation on the power of sound to bend time, cross borders, and profoundly shape our perception of the world around us. Join Oscar nominated filmmaker Green as he takes the audience on a journey through time and space exploring everything from forgotten childhood memories, to the soundtrack of resistance, to subaquatic symphonies and experience in new ways the astonishing sounds of our everyday lives. 32 Sounds investigates the mysterious nature of perception and the subtle yet radical politics that arise from sensation and being present in one’s body.

A profile of Francesco Lotoro, the Italian composer and pianist who has worked 30 years to recover, catalog, and perform music written during the Holocaust – including works written and performed secretly in Nazi concentration camps. Lotoro converted to Judaism after gravitating towards the religion from a young age. At the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, inmate orchestras were set up by the Nazis for their entertainment. The main function of the Auschwitz Camp Orchestra was to play marches and concerts. As an entire generation of musicians and artists were imprisoned or killed, Lotoro feels the course of European music would have differed drastically with their influence. He has catalogued over 8,000 pieces of music, which range from symphonies to tunes scribbled on discarded paper. Lotoro collects, arranges, and sometimes completes the works with great care. He argues the point of connection between life and death, in a place like a concentration camp, is music. Prisoners felt the music allowed them a sense of dignity, which Lotoro continues to work to preserve. Includes interviews with Bret Werb, music curator at the U.S. Holocaust Museum; Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, Holocaust survivor and former Auschwitz women’s orchestra member; Waldemar Kropinski, son of composer Jozef Kropinski; and Christoph Kulisiewicz, son of composer Aleksander Kulisiewicz.
