Everyone is welcome to sing! – that is the general mantra of karaoke. Since its invention karaoke has evolved into a cultural and popular phenomenon specifically in Asian countries like Japan Hong Kong Philippines and Vietnam. In these lands singing takes various forms and is carried out in locations such as bars KTVs homes cafes weddings and funerals. The communal act is not only entertaining and fun it can also provide a sense of comfort and familiarity.
Exploring the social impact of this beloved activity Karaoke! Playing the ♯ and ♭ presents short films where realities dreams and fears converge with the act of singing. Whether as a form of escapism the yearning for something more or a chance to dance the night away – these films invite you to experience the rhythm of their world.
