Allelujah

"The hard truths that go with ageing are not glossed over and the shortcomings in Britain’s health service get a pasting."

ALLELUJAH (UK) 2023 Drama  

Director : Richard Eyre

Starring :  Jesse Akele  
Lorraine Ashbourne    
Nivedita Bhargava
 
1 hr  39 min    

Directed by Richard Eyre, 'Allelujah' follows the staff of the Bethlehem Hospital, in Wakefield, West Yorkshire – including Bally Gill's Dr Valentine and Jennifer Saunders' Sister Gilpin – who have dedicated their lives to the care of others, as well as a local health-ministry rep Colin (Russell Tovey), whose visits to his estranged father (David Bradley) shift his perspective on the NHS.

It also happens to feature its own supergroup of veteran British thespians, including, Judi Dench, Derek Jacobi and Eileen Davies.

Released last year to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the National Health Service, it's both a celebration of its workers and a plea for its future.
