Acclaimed conductor Thibaut has leukaemia and needs a bone marrow donor. Learning he was adopted, he finds an older brother, a musician and factory worker. Their reunion sparks a fraternal, musical journey amidst the town's factory closure.

The Marching Band unashamedly wears its heart on its sleeve with the musical score firmly centre stage, including the powerful use of Ravel’s Bolero for a rousing finale. Even the most austere observer would be hard-pushed not to shed a tear or two.
