This is the sombre and earnest story of a small Yorkshire community in 1916 scarred by war and gathered around its choral society which has lost its best voices on the front forcing the conscription of a new choir master and a group of teenage boys. The master's name is Guthrie (Ralph Fiennes) who has recently returned from the front. He has a love of German composers but not it is war time and he is determined to inspire these young singers to perform The Dream of Gerontius by Edward Elgar. It stars Roger Alam, Mark Addy, Alun Armstrong, Robert Emms and Simon Russell Beale.
