Music is all around us. Music is just one of the subjects people study at school. But music is often an underrated subject. This documentary shows just how much music can help students develop as persons.

The documentary focuses on how music unlocks student’s full potential and transforms their learning.

The short and inspirational documentary takes us on a journey at Emerson School, an Australian school trying to show how love for singing incorporates with the local community. Emerson is a special needs school.

The school organized an event in which they invited nine local schools. The goal was to show the love for singing and music making, with each school bringing something unique to the table.

Once united, the students voices sounded like one, breaking social barriers and demonstrating the full potential of music as a literacy in schools.
