BIG VOICE

One demanding teacher. 32 unwieldy teenagers. One year. 

An inspiring musical documentary, BIG VOICE follows a year in the life of Santa Monica High

School choir teacher Jeffe Huls, who pushes his students to become "one big voice." As the beneficiary of this film, SMMEF is proud to promote BIG VOICE. 

BIG VOICE is having a fundraising screening on Thursday, May 7 at 7pm at Santa Monica High School's Barnum Hall to raise funds for completion costs, and we hope you will join us. Tickets are on sale now.

Following the film will be a Q&A with Director Varda Bar-Kar and Choir Director Jeffe Huls.
