Energy: A Documentary About Damo Suzuki
Critically-acclaimed director Michelle Heighway has been working with iconic musician Damo Suzuki since 2014, culminating in ENERGY.
The film shows five years of Suzuki’s life in Germany and the United Kingdom as he confronts cancer and attempts to continue a never-ending global tour.
We are now crowdfunding for the final phase of the film: archival copyright fees and music licensing which will allow us to honor Damo’s story with the documentary it deserves.
“ENERGY is a wonderful story of hope,” says Heighway. “It’s a personal portrait of an iconic musician, a nomad and a person who connects others all around the world.”
The film examines the past, present and future of Suzuki’s influential music, from his beginnings with legendary band CAN, to his singular outlook on life, creativity, and protest.
A crowd-funding campaign has been launched by Heighway via Indiegogo to raise funds to help complete the film with contributions helping to pay for music licensing, archival photos and footage rights, graphics, sound mixing, mastering, colour/sound correction and other post-production costs as well as distribution.
For those who'd like to help out with a donation and get a signed photo of Damo, digital stream of the completed film, a limited edition coffee mug, t-shirt or DVD, go here. Check out the trailer below.
