[Laya Project - Six shores sharing one ocean, one sky, and one language of survival and music. A tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, EarthSync’s award winning production Laya Project is a documentary about the lives and music culture of coastal and surrounding communities in the 2004 tsunami-affected regions of Sri Lanka, Thailand, Indonesia, Maldives, Myanmar and India. A visual journey documenting folk music recorded and filmed on location, some of these performances are rare and documented for the first time.
Crossing boundaries of genre while still preserving the music of the people, Laya Project is a celebration of life, and is dedicated to the survivors. The film has won several awards, has been screened at international film festivals around the world, and was broadcast on the National Geographic Channel. ]
