The City Without Music: a short documentary
What if Bristol was a city without music?
In our second documentary made by young people at the BFI Film Academy 2018, we discover how Bristol’s music scene is under threat.
Plans to develop residential homes in the city centre are putting pressure on some of Bristol’s iconic live music venues. Music fan Jeffrey Johns aka Big Jeff talks to venue owners and local musicians about the issue in this short documentary.
