St Andrews Film Festival
Description
Join us for the inaugural St Andrews Film Festival. A full day of curated films celebrating community and music, showing in the historical St Andrews Hall.
My Brother's Band (2024 French comedy drama) is about a professional orchestra conductor who discovers he has a brother he’d never known of before, brought up in an entirely different social milieu. Music unites them, society pulls them apart.
This Choir Sings Carols, a 2018 documentary by local film maker Andrew Garton is a fascinating insight into the formation of the Whittlesea Community Choir. Set in Whittlesea and Epping it's a joyful celebration of our local and diverse community. Andrew is our special guest for the day and will speak about his film and answer audience questions.
The Choral (2025 British historical drama) is an Alan Bates screenplay set in the UK at the time of the First World War. The local community choral society attempts to boost the spirits of the townsfolk in unsettled times. This funny and moving film stars Ralph Fiennes and is directed by Nicholas Hytner.
