About

The Tokyo Sessions takes you inside the heart of creation as jazz musician Benjamin Herman shapes his latest album. Captured through the lens of his twin brother, filmmaker Jonathan Herman, the documentary follows Benjamin and his band from first ideas to final takes. Filmed partly in Tokyo’s legendary Studio Dede, the story highlights unique collaborations with Japanese artists including Otomo Yoshihide, Tomoaki Baba and Akihito Obama. The documentary is an intimate portrait of music in motion—where inspiration, improvisation, and cultural exchange converge.
