"Indiqué sur la jaquette : Fatih Akin et Alexander Hacke sont partis à la découverte d'Istanbul, métropole tourbillonnante, point de contact entre l'Orient et l'Occident, pour tenter d'en capter la musique. Au fil des rencontres, des enregistrements live, c'est une véritable mosaïque culturelle qui se dessine entre creux. Un document précieux où les images d'Istanbul se forment à travers l'effervescence de sa scène musicale."
"Alexander Hacke, member of the German avant garde band Einstürzende Neubauten, sets out to capture the musical diversity of Istanbul.The film is a journey through the music scene in modern Istanbul, Turkey as well as portraying its cultural life. Hacke roamed the streets of Istanbul with his mobile recording studio and a microphone to assemble an inspired portrait of Turkish music from classical Arabesque to indie rock and rap. Amongst the featured artists are Baba Zula, Sertab Erener, Sezen Aksu, Orhan Gencebay, Erkin Koray, the alternative rock band Replikas, Mercan Dede, Brenna MacCrimmon, Selim Sesler, and Müzeyyen Senar."
"Crossing The Bridge: The Sound Of Istanbul, narrated by Alexander Hacke, offers a whistlestop tour of one city's sonic heritage, journeying through rock, rap, avant-garde and folksong. With the keynote being diversity, this documentary arguably favours breadth over depth; but it's still an eye-opening portrait, capturing several fine musical performances."
""In his follow-up to the critically acclaimed film 'Head-on,' director Fatih Akin's documentary introduces an international audience to the diversity and uniqueness of the historic and recent expressions of musical creativity in the heart of Istanbul, discovering a broad spectrum ranging from modern electronic, rock, and hip-hop to classical 'Arabesque.'" -- Container."

"A maverick in Istanbul. Alexander Hacke, a member of the German avantgarde band Einsturzende Neubauten for more than 20 years, first came into contact with the city and its music while producing the score for the movie Head-On (Gegen die Wand). In Istanbul he met the members of the neo-psychedelic band Baba Zula. When their bass player dropped out, he was asked to sit in for her. Alex Hacke is a collector of musical styles and loves to experiment with sound, and so it didn't take much to persuade him. But he didn't just bring his bass guitar, but also a complete mobile recording studio, including his "magic mike", which he has used to capture exotic sounds from all over the world. He calls his approach to collecting sounds "street recording", and it allows him to make professional recordings just about anywhere. And so he sets out to capture the musical diversity of Istanbul onto his hard drive. His aim is to expose western ears to the broadest possible spectrum of Turkish music, ranging from modern electronic sounds, rock and hip-hop, right down to classical "Arabesque" music. Faith Akin, director of Head-On, accompanies him with his camera and shoots a portrait of Istanbul's lively music scene, whose music suffuses every part of the city, and which is dearly loved by all of its inhabitants. Hacke's home base is the venerable Büyük Londra Oteli (Grand Hotel de Londres) in Istanbul's district of Beyoglu, probably the most "European" spot in all of Turkey. From here he wanders through an alien, contradictory, lively, and seductive world, collecting impressions and tracks, drifting along in the unstoppable stream of this mega city of myriad facets. But no hard drive or film can do justice to the diversity and overwhelming force of musical and visual impressions this city generates. With this experience he finally returns home, a musical treasure in his baggage, which now needs to be sifted and presented to the world.--Kanopy."

His voyage leads to the discovery of a broad spectrum ranging from modern electron, rock and hip-hop to classical "Arabesque". The film is also a visual documentary of Istanbul, with stark contrasts of old and new, western and eastern, poor and rich, modern and traditional."
