CALL OF THE WILD EXCLUSIVE SCREENING
How do you experience an African sunset or describe the wealth of animals, plants, birds and landscapes of the bush if you are born blind? Call of the Wild explores this question by taking Anika- a young visually impaired girl with a remarkable knack for language and bird calls- on the first ever documented safari for the blind. Designed by the soundscape specialists Derek and Sarah Solomon, this incredible sound safari experience, filmed for both able sighted and blind viewers, will make you listen to the sounds of the African bush as if hearing it for the first time.
This critically acclaimed documentary premiered at the prestigious Silwerskermfees this year where it was nominated for Best Director, Best Editing and was awarded Best Sound Design for its use of ultra-sensitive microphones and groundbreaking format allowing audiences to either watch the documentary or simply just listen to it.
