THE CHORUS screening

This award-winning drama set in postwar France follows failed composer Clément Mathieu (Gérard Jugnot), who takes a job he never wanted — supervising troubled boys at a harsh boarding school. The boys initially resist his efforts, but Mathieu gradually earns their trust and forms a choir, using music to foster hope, healing and connection. Winner of 12 critic and festival awards and nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, the film is widely praised for its emotional depth and soaring choral score. The screening is part of the Movies With Spirit community film series.
