Based on the play by Alan Bennett (THE MADNESS OF KING GEORGE, THE LADY IN THE VAN), ALLELUJAH is a warm, humorous, and deeply moving story about surviving old age. When the geriatric ward in a small Yorkshire hospital is threatened with closure, the hospital decides to fight back.
Allelujah celebrates the spirit of the elderly patients whilst paying tribute to the deep humanity of the medical staff battling with limited resources and ever-growing demand.
It’s an urgently relevant exploration of how modern society takes care of its elderly and a clarion call for support for public healthcare everywhere.
Allelujah is in cinemas from Friday March 17th.
