In Search of The Great Song is part of an ongoing documentary series exploring and celebrating humanity's inherent connection to an underlying creative 'pulse', emergent and uniquely expressing through everything and everyone.

Our intention is to inspire the remembrance of an underlying connection while encouraging creative expression, exploring themes of singing and songmaking in particular. As such, the series brings awareness to a worldwide epidemic of people afraid to sing, or express their creative self, unless they believe their offering is 'perfect', while highlighting an active global movement of creative expression.

Co-produced by Michael Stillwater and Doris Laesser Stillwater, a series of feature documentaries is in development, each episode featuring a different aspect of expression around the theme of 'The Great Song'. The films include both known and unknown artists, teachers, scientists, elders and youth.
