A tale of community resilience The Choral (12A) at St Andrews Church in Haconby.

Dir: Nicholas Hytner | Year: 2025 | Cast: Ralph Fiennes, Emily Fairn, Mark Addy | Approx. running time: 108m | Genre: Drama

1916. As war rages on the Western Front, the Choral Society in Ramsden, Yorkshire has lost most of its men to the army. The Choral’s ambitious committee, determined to press ahead, decides to recruit local young males to swell their ranks. They must also engage a new chorus master, and despite their suspicions that he has something to hide, their best bet seems to be Dr. Henry Guthrie (Ralph Fiennes) – driven, uncompromising, and recently returned from a career in Germany. As conscription papers start to arrive, the whole community discovers that the best response to the chaos that is laying waste to their lives is to make music together.

This is an indoor film screening, and everyone is encouraged to bring snacks and a cushion to get comfortable. All income from ticket sales and refreshments will go towards supporting the church.

Please note: the advertised time is the exact start of the feature film - there are no trailers or pre-show adverts beforehand.
