Set in the city of Salvador in the Bahia district of Brazil, Colors of a Creative Culture introduces us to a number of artists (trained and untrained) who cover the walls of the city in vibrantly colored murals, what they refer to as "street interference art." Their aim is to beautify the city by eliminating graffiti and advertising and to expose the community to art while trying to involve kids in creative and useful activities that would keep them out of trouble. The real strength of this program is the DVD extras, which include slide shows of the artists, interviews, and music videos.rnFound Sounds Bahia focuses on Jair Rezende and the musical group Lactomia in the Candeal neighborhood of Salvador. This unique band encompasses the creation of music and costumes made from recycled materials. It also takes kids off the streets and gives them a music education and an opportunity to produce foot-tapping percussion rhythms in addition to performing around the world, including at New York's Lincoln Center.
