Synopsis

How would you feel if a top music magazine asked you to tour with your favourite group and then write about it? Probably as excited as 1970s teen William Miller in this funny yet poignant coming-of-age movie. The trouble is, rock 'n' roll is full of hedonistic distractions - meaning poor William just can't pin down the band long enough to compose his article. With his deadline looming, the 15-year-old needs desperate help, and so turns to self-styled "band aid" Penny Lane, hoping she can work some magic.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
