The story of the "silent servant" of the musical world - the Bow. Starting from the workshops of five master bowmakers in the Pacific Northwest, journey to the fascinating origin of the bow In France, and to Brazil, home to the imperiled tree from which bows are made. A film for all people who love music. A film about hope. How a handful of craftsmen is preserving this centuries-old trade in service to world-class musicians. An immersion into beauty itself. A film that will change the way you hear music.
