Gurrumul
Pittsburgh Premiere

Gurrumul is a stirring portrait of the widely celebrated
Australian musician Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu, a blind,
indigenous artist known for soulful tenor vocals that blended
his traditional heritage with folk, gospel and classical elements. The documentary introduces us to his family and
remote island community while featuring footage from many
of his concerts including a duet with Sting and a standing
ovation at the Sydney Opera House.

“For Gurrumul fans, the film is obviously a must-see. For those unfamiliar, or vaguely familiar with his work, it’s an even greater treat: they will be entertained, enthralled, perhaps in some small way changed.” – Luke Buckmaster, The Guardian

“A profound and transporting songline.” – David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
