From award-winning filmmaker Mona Fastvold (The Brutalist) comes the extraordinary story based on the true legend of Ann Lee, founder of the devotional sect known as the Shakers. Amanda Seyfried stars as the Shakers’ 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 Ann’s quest to build a utopia, and features more than a dozen traditional Shaker hymns reimagined as rapturous movements.
