Till You're Told To Stop

We are very excited to announce that Till You're Told to Stop will be screened at the International Filmmaker Festival in October this year.

This independent film by Ruth Somalo follows the progress of singer, James Blunt, from a man with no musical background to an artist with enormous worldwide success following his debut album release Back to Bedlam.

The filmic voyage of a humble soldier who resigned from his post as a Queen's Guard to become a musician starts with rare footage of James at his home in London prior to a rehearsal with his newly formed band. They are rehearsing together (for the fourth and last time) before nervously facing an intimate audience at the Garage Club in London in preparation for a baptism of fire supporting Elton John at Ipswich Football Stadium in front of 25,000 people.

The film documents the friendship that grows between James and his accompanist Paul Beard (keyboards player) while gaining public exposure by playing to ever growing audiences in small venues throughout London.

Tickets to the screening of this Documentary at the Iternational Filmmaker Festival in Thanet in October are available by request. Please e-mail contact@filmmakerfestival.com.
