We Are celebrates the upcoming album from Jazz musician Jon Bastiste, whilst simultaneously using his platform to inspire and elevate.
Director Bram VanderMark‘s musical short film beautifully blends editorial moments with vulnerable interviews, to offer a cathartic insight into the life and times of one of America’s most exciting contemporary artists.
Fresh from a recent Oscar nomination for his work in scoring Pixar’s Soul, VanderMark’s short showcases Bastiste’s multiple talents as a pianist, band leader, philosopher, and activist, and walks the audience through four themes: Lineage, Authenticity, Excellence, and Evolution.
