Afternoon Cinema: Allelujah

Allelujah is a deeply moving, yet warming, story about old age.

When the geriatric ward in a small Yorkshire hospital is threatened with closure, the hospital decides to fight back by galvanizing the local community: they invite a news crew to film their preparations for a concert in honour of the hospital's most distinguished nurse.

What could go wrong?

Allelujah celebrates the spirit of the elderly patients whilst paying tribute to the deep humanity of the medical staff battling with limited resources, constant pressure and ever-growing demand.

Featuring a star-studded cast; Jennifer Saunders, Russell Tovey, David Bradley, Bally Gill, Judy Dench and Derek Jacobi.
