From award winning writer-director Mona Fastvold (The World to Come, The Brutalist) comes a speculative, sweeping, and musical retelling of the extraordinary story of Ann Lee, founder of the religious sect known as the Shakers. Academy Award-nominee Amanda Seyfried (Mamma Mia!, Mank) stars as the Shakers’ irrepressible leader—who espoused gender and social equality while believing herself to be the female incarnation of Christ.

The Testament of Ann Lee thrillingly imagines the ecstasy and agony of Ann Lee and her followers’s conviction and commitment to her own vision of utopia. More than a dozen original Shaker hymns are transformed into ecstatic “movements,” featuring choreography from Celia Rowlson-Hall (Vox Lux) and music by Academy Award-winning composer Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist).
