In this world, discrimination arising from inequality and poverty exists as an "invisible wall", and in reality, this constrains the future of many children.
In Medellín, Colombia, some people are confronting this wall though the "power of music."
Medellín is an energetic city that changes daily
The local color of Medellín is handed down from the past
From 1980 to 1990, Medellín was the worst place ever
Dead bodies and the stink of drugs
How difficult it was to shake that off
All the residents here are very proud of their city
They never ran away from its great difficulties
The most valuable thing in Medellín is the people
The sun was over there
The smoke just spread across the sun
The sun was a blazing red
Then a helicopter dropped fire-extinguishing chemicals on the area
Everything around here was burning
I prayed to God that my house wouldn't burn
Our refrigerator and our washing machine were stolen
Lots of things were stolen
This little house was all that remained
I have a lot of songs I really love
Songs that my dad sings
And songs that my mom sings
Because they sing it together,
I like the song "Vuela"—the two of them sing it
Some songs my dad sings by himself
He lied to me for twelve years
He always told me he was my dad
But I was suspicious
Then my mom told me
That guy wasn't my real dad
When I was 13
I was told for the first time he wasn't my real dad,
that he was my stepdad
But I already knew
So I stopped trusting that guy
I had bad friends on the streets
Before, I was on the streets all the time
I got into danger too
For instance, I had things stolen
Lots of other stuff too
I have good news
Starting tomorrow, you can take music lessons in the city
It's really wonderful
Because it was his dream, and it was my dream too
I'm really happy
He loves music so much
Good morning, everyone
Good morning
How was your morning?
It was good
Everyone doing well?
Yes
That's great!
Are you all ready?
Yes
Are you ready?
Yes ! Of course!
Very well
From today, we'll starting practicing a new instrument
It's called the Venova
It has two main parts
Remove the mouthpiece
Hold the mouthpiece
A question
Is this a percussion instrument?
No
A string instrument?
No
So this is a …?
Wind instrument!
That's right, it's a wind instrument
How do you play a wind instrument?
You blow
Close your mouth
Bravo!
It's difficult
But you're making the proper sound Don't sit too deeply
You need to breathe correctly when playing a wind instrument
What do you see?
Breathing deeply!
What's going on here?
Your stomach is going up and down
Breathe out
Breathe in deeply
When you breathe in deeply, you push my hand away
I was a wretched girl with few opportunities in life
Children today have the chance to develop their talents
When we were kids, we had no such opportunities
because it cost money
My mother always worked
Even if things were free, there was no one to take me along
That was my situation
It was a very difficult situation
I never really had a single opportunity like that
Where could I learn music?
Who would give me the opportunity?
In those days, I was told only to study
I went to the park on Sundays with my family
That was my only entertainment
But for my child's life
But for my child's life
My son is so cheerful now
He's very excited and looking very happy
He's full of hope, more excited than ever
Because he has hope now
The strangest thing is this area used to be a garbage dump
Back in the day, it was Medellín's garbage dump
Gradually, it changed
A lot of houses have been built and colorfully painted
It's changed a lot
Shady people from elsewhere came here to dump their trash
They came from all over to dump their trash here
The environment has changed a lot, as you can see
For example, those kids
are flying kites here now
Trust has been built,
little by little, through communication
I taught the children about plants
I've been able to teach them about nature in this area
When you're in a class for
saxophone, Venova, trumpet
Always listen to the teacher
Don't talk or blow your instrument without permission
And now we will ... sit down, Mark
Please
Play so,
then let's play si la so
Bravo! Now, the next note
This sound comes from here
It's my turn, mine You're next Got it?
Loosen up a little
Put your fingers up
Don't bite down so hard
That's right
Cover this hole and keep holding it
Now place your fingers in the right order
There are many newcomers in this neighborhood
It's also very racially diverse
It feels out of control
It lacks culture, commonsense, education for children
Children are not treated properly
They are raised like animals
Children grow up and leave for the outside world
but they're not ready for it
This neighborhood has a shortage of places for education,
places that teach respect for others
Lying down on the ground like this
The teacher puts his head here and breathes
His stomach gets bigger and smaller
Is that what he said? Do you remember?
Breathing
Diaphragm
The teacher said to do it like this
Breathe in, stop, breathe out—like this
Do you lie on the floor?
Does everyone lie down?
If music gets more popular in this neighborhood
I think music will save many lives
At least, I think it will change many lives
Because the atmosphere here is so heavy
So I think that music
will keep away all the
negative things surrounding Sindel
Sindel doesn't have much connection with the outside world
People on the outside influence her in all kinds of ways
So I don't let her go outside by herself
I always tell her to get permission first
I think music is changing Sindel a lot
I don't want her to be like those people who can't escape here
Living just to work
I want to teach our daughter
a positive attitude, where she can say
"I do this because I like this"
This is the biggest free art school on Earth
We teach kids how to express themselves. In other words "hip-hop"
Many people come to learn
Many young people launch respected artistic careers here
The sole purpose of this organization is
to teach people what they want to learn
Knowledge gained over the years
That's what it's for
It was created to convey knowledge
Kids in this place will know the joy
of expressing themselves
Having so many kids gather here,
it's unbelievable
This place is more than a school.
It's a place that gives inspiration
Inspiration for growth,
for positive growth
I want you to enjoy what we're able to give here,
all the various things here
First class
Please pay attention!
Watch this body's muscles move!
For the children who come here,
two things are very important
The first is their feelings
and the other is the humility to learn
This allows them to build confidence
Did you see that 7-year-old boy dancing?
No fear at all, he was so confident
The kid who danced before him danced better
But that doesn't matter at all
My turn comes around, it's my own moment
It's only me that shines in that moment
The kid who steps out and is able to dance
That kid grows up to be number one
This is extremely important for artists
I never just thought I'd create a school
You saw how it takes shape
Even without me doing anything, it functions by itself
Children learn by watching the children around them
If they ask me to teach, naturally I teach them
I never refuse
It was good
It felt very good
It was a good performance
I like to listen to them play
I liked it
They taught me not only bad people live on this street
They say we should absolutely never become a drug addict
They taught me that there are many things to do in the streets
like graffiti and DJing
I got to ask about how DJ mixing is don
I like DJ mixing, and I want to try it
It's not just music and dance,
there are many other ways to learn about art
I think there are lots of things that can save people from the street
It was awesome
I was really happy to see a DJ
I danced
It was so good
I never saw a DJ before
I think the one thing seen here is love
Love for whatever you do
The children encountered things they never thought of before,
and it changed them
At first I was playing soccer, practicing a lot
practicing a lot
My older brother was a rapper
He had a rap group
Every time I went to my brother's, I listened to music
I'd never heard any other music
When I listened to my brother's music, I loved it
I wanted to do it too
But I didn't expect to keep going with music
Hey, brothers
Let's do it! This is what music is like
Try and try, practice again and again
Keep rehearsing until you can do it well
Later, when I was in elementary school, my brother got injured
There was a traffic accident It was serious
From that time on, I began working on music for real
I started to write about life and suffering
on a sheet of paper
For me, it was my proudest moment so far
it was my proudest moment so far
Because Juan was suddenly blessed with
the opportunity to develop his talent
and to do what he loves
My friends and I decided to write you a letter
I sent it to a different address
You're a beautiful girl,
a different girl from when you and I were in touch,
Like everyone say, like "a garden full of roses"
I've never killed people
You are my witness
But why do the police punish me?
My greatest aim in doing music is proving myself
Everyone thinks people who do hip-hop
steal and do drugs
I want to prove that I'm not like that
Anyone can do music
Anyone can be a musician or a great artist
First, calm your mind
The lyrics are already in your head, aren't they?
Your lyrics Just your lyrics
That's right The thing you sang just now
Where you sang just now
The thing you just sang
And for the young children who live here
Why did I want to show them another way?
A lot of kids are crazy about soccer, soccer, soccer
But when they can't become soccer players, they throw their lives away
So actually I wanted to show children another way with music
There's not just one way
That's right. My first impression of Juan
is that he's a fighter, facing forward
And he knows himself
I think he's grown tremendously
At first, I felt strongly that he's a quick learner
I always had that feeling
He always tried so hard to learn
So he's learned whatever he wanted to learn
It's amazing growth
Nice to meet you, I am Juan
Where I live, it's like a balcony,
at the top of the city,
overlooking the city
Standing tall and rapping
I search for peace, I'm not asking too much
My song is full of good things
With paper and pencil, I draw this hill full of history
My head is full of
happy memories and bad memories
I won't be beaten
My goal in life is grabbing victory
A woman is like a flower, a rose
She's a beautiful lady
You can't lay a hand on a woman
With my head and heart, I'm always thinking of you
I wrote that feeling in a letter
But the letter never reached you
It went somewhere else
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always staying positive
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always looking forward
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
I always think about moving forward,
one step at a time
I love to work
For real, speak with confidence
This kid Juan invited me,
so I sing with passion
Talking about soccer and trophies
I don't care about the perreo at night
It's nothing to do with me
What I've seen, what I've heard, what I've thought,
what I've read: it's enough
I'm the captain, sailing in a story
Expand your imagination
I'm trying to banish fate from my head
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always staying positive
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always staying positive
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always staying positive
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
My neighborhood gives me strength and inspiration
From this neighborhood, I sing songs for this country
I'm always staying positive
I'm grateful to God that I'm still alive
Exhausted, I got home
Look at the mirror, straight ahead, and see myself reflected
Nice to meet you, I am Juan
Where I live, it's like a balcony,
at the top of the city,
overlooking the city
Standing tall and rapping
I search for peace, I'm not asking too much
I sing from the balcony of the city
The songs "Black Man" and "Seta Juan" are over
Witnessing Juan absorbed in these lyrics
is a real pleasure for me too
Juan has always lived with me
No father in this environment
And he's seen violence
Juan wasn't the victim directly
but his cousin, a girl, was subjected to violence
That's why the lyrics have the phrase
"You can't lay a hand on a woman"
I thought it was very nice
Even though I know he's only 13 years old
Even though I know he's only a child
He watches his surroundings closely
These lyrics show it
Transport is pretty bad around here
That's why we're late for the lessons
People give us strange looks
But ... those guys ... those guys
They don't live around here
It's normal
Those guys, when I came late,
those guys looked at me like, " What the hell is this kid doing?
They were eating, but they didn't give me anything
It's normal
I also thought, over and over,
It's too much trouble, I really wanted to stop it
I could have ended it,
I could have ended it,
But that wouldn't have been good for my son
I couldn't bear my actions having a bad influence on him
So I kept going
Actually, I didn't want to stop
Some days I didn't want to go to the lesson, but
my dad told me to live with him
So I was confused
I know that feeling very well
Because life is confusing at Juan's age
He's not a kid anymore
The time when he can just enjoy playing without thinking is over
He's becoming a young man. It's a time of struggle
It felt like I was watching myself
Seeing motivation disappear
and then feeling motivated again
That's why I want to say to Juan
"Thank you" for having the energy to continue
I was a happy child when I was his age
thanks to my environment
But many Latin American children
don't live in environments like this
They really have a lot of problems
They have no father,
they have no mother
What I really hope for is that
all the children of Medellín are equally
able to receive a complete education
This will give them
other options in life
People here can't move on, move outside
There's no interaction with the city
Previously, there used to be more violence
in districts where children and young people lived
Now is our chance to escape that horrible time
The children were given musical instruments
Rather than children holding weapons
it's better that they hold musical instruments
These are symbols of peace
These are also symbols of hope
What they've learned most is "strength"
The strength to continue
Because,
our current efforts are meaningful,
because children will be able to make their dreams come true by themselves
Sports and music
I think these are driving forces forming human society
What Atlético Nacional emphasizes
for children and young people coming to the stadium,
it's not just practicing sports
We maintain a youth division for soccer classes
This is more meaningful than the theme of "sports"
If kids get a valuable education early,
these important abilities will remain for life
Even if they don't become professional soccer players
At least it helps them grow as people
Even if they return to their hometown, to their families,
even if they return to where they live,
I think they have positive potential
The time will come when music is nothing but passion
Just having passion, putting on a good performance. Just that.
But life is not just music
There's work, there's being a parent
We need to search for the meaning of life
That's why music ... ... it's passion
Always with us
When I came across the Venova …
Right now, I'm more about the music than the street
I guess I'm happy.
But... I'm 80% happy and 20% nervous
Because many people will come to watch
And they'll come from all over
I'm nervous, but I'm happy.
I think maybe me playing the Venova
will encourage other kids
Because if they want to, people can achieve anything
An announcement for everyone
On Sunday,
,your classmate here will
perform the national anthem at the
Atlético Nacional versus Chico soccer match at the stadium
It will be broadcast on TV
Keep chasing your dreams
I hope everything will work out
And have fun
Because this is another victory for you
I hope your dreams come true
and everything works out well
Fight for your dreams
I think Pacho will be a great person someday
Everyone in my class
who has supported me,
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement
I love you all from my heart
Well, thinking about my own future,
This project is my chance
to have a wonderful future
I really appreciate my mother
She's the reason I'm here
Ok, let's go
Right, concentrate
All the Venova players concentrated well
Did you remember when to play the first quarter note
at the end of the phrase three times?
Right?
You play it long, don't you?
And about bar 200
As soon as I instruct, play it gently
From bar 9 upbeat
Anyone can play music, at any time
All music echoes in us
It echoes in our heart in some way, all human beings
I think this is the foundation of music
It works deep inside our hearts,
the most fundamental part of a human being
Even if the performer is not a star, whether their performance is good or bad
Music echoes deep within the human heart
To give a wonderful performance
Put all your heart into it. You guys are excellent
So breathe that excellence into your instrument
Ok? When the first phrase is over
The tempo stops once,
and in the second phrase the tempo changes
You have to be more careful here
Tempo, tempo
No, wrong tempo!
I think all your parents are proud of you
People in the band too
Being able to practice hard with all you guys
You're working harder than expected
This is the result of everyone's efforts
If everyone doesn't move forward in their own way,
they'll fall back without success
Regardless whether the future looks good or bad, there are always results
Everything we did
turned out to be difficult
But that's what got us through
If you can remember a single success
you can succeed in anything after that
Think about what will happen tomorrow
Everyone close their eyes
Can you see the crowd of spectators?
They all want to hear 26 children perform
How will you play tomorrow?
You'll play the same as always
Ok, now let's go to the stadium
We're at the stadium
Sunday, September 30, 2018
People are watching from around the world
At that moment, you guys shine the brightest
My heroes are my mama and papa
Because,
mama always takes good care of me
Papa is my hero too
He's always by my side,
and I'm always by his side
My hero is my mother
I think my mother is the most amazing
She always took good care of us
For me, there are a lot of heroes
but my mama is the best
She raised me for 13 years by herself,
without any help
Being a hero means helping
It means someone who accomplishes big things
So I think my sons are heroes
My hero is my mama
Because she raised me on her little wages
We have to share with everyone,
she taught me,
whether we have a lot or a little
"Not a murderer, but a person dedicates.""
Heroes don't harm our city
It's the opposite—they keep fighting against it
crimes or violence
For me, those people are heroes
People who have given their lives
To make our lives more secure
That's why Medellín is full of heroes 570 00:52:54,500 --> 00:52:55,710 They are anonymous
Children are our heroes
Because they try to fulfill
the dreams they have
in their hearts
I'm very proud of myself
And I'm proud of everything I did
Because if you make an effort
you can do anything
I've gain so much confidence.
In the past, I never had so much pride.
Now I'm proud
Now I'm really confident
I'm here to make my dreams come true
With an instrument, you become a hero.
