About Panomundo

Award-winning filmmakers Keith Musaman Morton and Charysse Tia Harper will host the World Premiere of their documentary, Panomundo, on Friday, 17th October 2014, at 7:30PM at YAA Centre in west London*. The film depicts the history of the steelpan and its global influence.

“This is an exciting moment for us, because audiences will be able to understand the impact the steelpan has made around the world!” exclaimed Morton. Over the course of three years, the duo travelled to seven countries – Canada, England, Japan, Nigeria, Switzerland, Trinidad & Tobago and the United States – interviewing over 150 people, conducting research and hosting discussions about the topic. As independent filmmakers, Morton and Harper utilised crowdfunding sites, such as Seed&Spark and Indiegogo, as well as hosted over 20 fundraisers to secure funds to produce the film.

*Tickets for the premiere can only be purchased on the day of the event.
