Sven Ratzke: Where Are We Now

About This Movie

Sven Ratzke: Where Are We Now is a fascinating exploration of Bowie’s music through a theatrical lens. Ratzke, accompanied by Jetse de Jong on piano, captures the essence of Bowie’s catalog with a raw, stripped-back approach. The atmosphere is intimate, almost confessional, as Ratzke reflects on Bowie’s life and legacy. There’s this lovely ebb and flow in the pacing—moments of deep reverence mixed with light-hearted anecdotes, creating a layered experience. The performances are poignant, Ratzke’s charisma shines as he channels the spirit of Bowie while making the material his own. What stands out is the authenticity of the presentation; it feels less like a concert and more like a shared journey through memory and music.
