Project Detail

Solo!

Synopsis

When London busker Barney inherits a tumbledown cottage in a rundown Spanish village, all he wants to do is sell it, and go back home – before the villagers discover that he is the son of the man who ruined the village in the first place.
But to sell the house, Barney needs money to fix it up. So with help from local musician Paloma (and despite her ex-boyfriend’s interference), he sets about reforming the village band, aiming to win some prize money in an upcoming competition.
However, when he stands in to play a trumpet solo at the funeral of the previous bandleader, his performance style inadvertently reveals that he is his father’s son – since their playing styles are exactly the same.
How will the village react? And what will Paloma do now?
