From the award-winning writer-director of The Brutalist comes the extraordinary true legend of Ann Lee, founder of the devotional sect known as the Shakers. Amanda Seyfried stars as the Shaker's irrepressible leader, who - having been born into poverty in Manchester - went on to preach gender and social equality while being revered by her followers. Capturing the ecstasy and agony of her quest to build a utopia, it features more than a dozen traditional Shaker hymns reimagined as rapturous movements.
