IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
From heartbeat to backbeat, caveman to techno rave man, rhythm has driven our world for centuries. We journey with a cast of drummers, to discover the joy and exhilaration of a life dedicated to driving the beat. In their own words, we share the passion that has taken them from banging on pots and pans as kids, to playing on some of the world's biggest stages. Along the way, they pay tribute to the drummers that have influenced them, including the likes of Ringo, Charlie Watts, Keith Moon, John Bonham and Ginger Baker.
