The Testament of Ann Lee

From award-winning writer-director Mona Fastvold (The World to Come, The Brutalist) comes the extraordinary true legend of Ann Lee, founder of the Shakers. Academy Award nominee Amanda Seyfried stars as the devotional sect’s irrepressible leader, who preached gender and social equality and was revered by her followers. The Testament of Ann Lee captures the ecstasy and agony of her quest to build a utopia, featuring more than a dozen traditional Shaker hymns reimagined as rapturous movements with choreography by Celia Rowlson-Hall (Vox Lux) and original songs and score by Academy Award winner Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist).

Join us for a Q&A with director Mona Fastvold, co-writer Brady Corbet, and actor Tim Blake Nelson following the 6:40pm screening on Friday, January 16.
