WOW GREAT FILM GREAT TRUE STORY

 

"Beautifully told story that has so much heart and determination. A well crafted totally engaging film. Recommend highly."

"Praise to the cast, crew and all involved with this little gem of a movie.

The story had me captivated from the first moment, really drawing the viewer in to the tightly crafted screenplay. A joy to behold.

Such a significant part of New Zealand broadcast history, but also radio broadcasting generally. A must watch!

Music is so important in all our lives and this movie hits the right note.

Thoroughly recommended."
