State of the Unity is an award-winning uplifting documentary that explores one simple question, is unity possible? In 2016, during one of the most polarizing elections in American history Brooklyn-based husband-wife band The Bergamot (Jillian Speece and Nathaniel Hoff) hit the road.

Speece and Hoff’s goal was to see if unity in America is possible and if we could create a more peaceful union through the power of music, community and collaboration.

What ensued over the next eight months is a heartwarming tale of human perseverance, empathy and understanding.

Over the course of the 50 State tour Speece and Hoff performed over 264 shows, met thousands of Americans and invited everyone they met to ink their message of unity on The Unity Car.

It was in this daily practice of performing, connecting and listening to one another that they realized how powerful music, community and collaboration can be in creating a more positive and united culture.

State of the Unity reminds us that hope for a better future is possible when we open our hearts, embrace empathy and each other through the power of art. This inspiring film shows that a little kindness can go a long way transforming communities for the better.
