Karnak (band)

Karnak is a band from São Paulo, Brazil known for mixing diverse music styles from around the world with pop and rock.

However, Karnak became well-known on university radio stations around São Paulo and it even had some videos played in Brazilian MTV.

After returning to Brazil the next year, the band started to record its third album, Estamos Adorando Tóquio (We are loving Tokio).

Although in the mainstream media its impact was not as great as the 1995 record, the band played more shows, gathered more fans and became a little more known outside São Paulo.

On 16 December 2002, Abujamra wrote a message to Karnak producer Belma Ikeda which she forwarded to the largest e-mail based discussion list about the band.

The concerts were converted into a celebration of the band's existence, and included all Karnak members and ex-members, totaling almost twenty people on stage.

Although Abujamra confirmed that Karnak was finished, it has performed at least once a year since 2003, usually in SESC Pompéia, a culture complex located in São Paulo.

The film narrates a fictitious behind-the-scenes record a 2004 secret Chinese tour, but in fact it documents the bands supposed "final gig" in 2002.
