A desert, a rubbish dump, a quick view of a megalopolis. Remotely, a building left to a neglected state, filled with yesterdays rememberance and childhood remains, a deserted school. Sakamoto Hiromichi is wandering with his cello and bow. Step by step, the music fills in the empty space. He draws his instrument behind him, its endpin slips on the cement in a weeping lament. Sakamoto hurries towards his stool as the bowing gets faster and faster. A sudden sound explodes into the air as the endpin breaks a window

From radical turntablism (Otomo Yoshihide) to laptop music innovation (Numb), via classical instrument hijacking (Sakamoto Hiromichi), Tokyo's avant-garde music scene is internationally known for its boldness. While introducing some of the greatest musicians of this scene, We Don't Care About Music Anyway... offers a kaleidoscopic view of Tokyo, confronting music and noise, sound and image, reality and representation, documentary and fiction.

Beyond the music and beyond its performance, the future and mode of existence of a city, and society as a whole, are in motion.
