Let’s Get the Rhythm: The Life and Times of Miss Mary Mack (2014)
This film looks at the world wide tradition hand clapping games through the eyes of young girls from the greater New York area as they grow through those childhood years when it is central to their social network. Girlhood wit and charm is complemented by more mature reflections of adults who revisit in their childhood memories. Although this rhythmic play is deeply ingrained, traced back to Ancient Egypt and further, its worldly wisdom preserved by generations of girls, stands threatened as technology increasingly impacts our life style globally. Let’s Get the Rhythm is compelling testimony to the value of music in our lives.
