The film  highlights the different paths past pupils have taken - such as Fergal Carroll, Lyric FM, Paul Walsh, Roy7, Bill Ahessy, music therapist, Joe Roche, opera singer, Fergal Carroll, Army Band conductor and Stewart Clooney, piano teacher.
Over 50 past pupils were interviewed and over 100 contributed to the performance element of the documentary.
