Shifting Public Perceptions

The Big Band shows how music can break down barriers between people from different backgrounds and promote cross-cultural understanding.

It features Barking-born and internationally renowned musician Billy Bragg, and a group of culturally diverse musicians creating a world of vibrant sounds in a deserted hall. The film is a celebration of diversity with all the players “now living in East London”. It was filmed in the main hall of Robert Clack Secondary School, Dagenham.
