For thousands of years women have been locked out of Taiko drumming. Not anymore.

In the dead of a Minnesota winter, Asian drumming divas smash gender roles and redefine power on their own terms. Finding Her Beat dives into the rhythms and struggles that lead to an electrifying historic performance that changes everything.

Filmmakers and subjects Dawn Mikkelson, Keri Pickett, Jennifer Weir, Megan Chao Smith, Josie Smith-Weir will all be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A followed by a special reception for those in attendance. The evening kicks off with an energetic Taiko drumming performance!

(Directed by Dawn Mikkelson & Keri Pickett, 87 min, 2022, USA)
