Filmed in churches and parks, on front doorsteps and in back gardens, in a library, a bandstand, and a butterfly house, People’s Lullabies will take you on an emotional musical journey across Leeds.
Each of the 23 People’s Lullabies is performed by a person who has engaged with one of Opera North’s Community Partners in Leeds and the surrounding area. The simple format of the films – a continuous shot of an unaccompanied performance of a song that means something special to the singer – makes for immediate and deeply affecting viewing.
