NOTES
Title from title frames
This endearing and uplifting documentary invites us into the world of the piano lesson. Every year teachers and students throughout Ireland prepare for graded musical exams. These exams can be pleasing for some but daunting for others. Each student has their own particular goal but reaching Grade Eight is considered a pinnacle. MAKING THE GRADE explores the bond between piano teachers and their pupils as they struggle through these grades. This is a story of the transformative power of music and the pride and happiness it provides both the students and teachers. It may inspire us all to keep making the grade. Official Selection at the **SXSW Film Festival.** *"The vision of the world expressed here is warm and lovely, full of irrepressible positivity." - Katy Hayes, **Sunday Times***
