WORLD PREMIERE

DOCUMENTARY FEATURE / OFFICIAL SELECTION 83 MINUTES / USA / 2015 Director: Varda Bar-Kar Writer: Varda Bar-Kar Producers: Varda Bar-Kar, Marina Viscun Executive Producers: Deb Love, Carol Coote, John Beug Featured Subjects: Jeffe Huls, Isaac Nemzer, Eloise Graham, Amy Albuera, Joseph Colajezzi Big Voice is a musical documentary that chronicles a roller coaster year in the life of high school choir director Jeffe Huls and his most advanced ensemble. Mr. Huls’ passion for the choral arts and music literacy fuels his desire to exceed all standards and expectations. The results are hard won, yet exquisite. Following a series of competitive auditions, Mr. Huls compiles his dream ensemble – the most ideal combination of voices he’s ever had. He soon discovers that these 32 talented teenagers are also the most unwieldy group he has ever taught. Mr. Huls must convince his students to set aside their egos, conflicting styles and teenage angst to achieve the artistry he knows they are capable of. It is as much a story about the struggles of high school life as it is about choir. Big Voice interweaves slices of life, interviews and masterwork performances to engage and entertain.
