"Professor Anne Boyd is fighting to save her university music department. She's going to need more than a miracle!"

Biography, Documentary, Music

Anne Boyd, one of Australia's leading contemporary composers, teaches music at the publicly funded University of Sydney. This documentary chronicles a year in the life of an academic department that's under the financial gun.

Plot

This is another quality offering from Robin Anderson and Bob Connolly, creators of Rats in the Ranks. I think this documentary was made to make people angry about the way educational institutions are operated. If people aren't angry after seeing this, maybe they should be.
