Are You Everybody?

Are You Everybody? 2010

1

The film’s title “Are You Everybody?” was a common expression, and first greeting to fellow Kosovan people, when they saw each other for the first time after the war. It was a quick way of finding out whether there was anybody lost from their family. In June 1999 Lala Meredith-Vula (whose father is from Kosova) was invited by the British Red Cross to go in to Kosova shortly after the liberation and end of the NATO bombing. She witnessed the country torn and desolate gradually come back to life again. It is an artist’s deeply personal study about people surviving adversity and carrying on. The film shows the indomitability of the human spirit.

Music, its history, evolution and impact make up the core of this documentary. Beginning with archaic instruments that produced various sounds to technologically savvy ones as a result of fast-paced development, music is, and indeed always was, an inseparable part of all lively activity. It has inspired the emancipation of nations, cultures, societies, and especially those whom are touched by its rhythm and electrifying nature. Those living in the midst of these musical currents, of which some are presented during this documentary, express inherent beauty, complexity, soulfulness, uniqueness, and sweetness.
