DESCRIPTION

When a soldier is transferred to another unit, the whole family wanders with him. Military wives are facing the repeated building of neighbourly and community relations from scratch. They can find themselves in women’s choirs. Music has a wonderful power: it connects, relieves tensions, releases accumulated emotions and strengthens. Kate and Lisa, military wives with completely different personalities and temperaments fight for the decisive voice in the choir. If they don’t compromise, their dreamt performance at the Royal Albert Hall will not come true.


DIRECTOR
Peter Cattaneo (1964), British director. He graduated from the Royal College of Art (1989). His father was a London-born animator of Italian descent. Cattaneo was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film for “Dear Rosie” (1990). He went on to make his feature film debut with “The Full Monty” (1997), which was a smash success both in the UK and internationally. The comedy was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture and the Academy Award for Best Director and won the Academy Award for Best Original Score by Anne Dudley. Cattaneo has since directed several films. He has also directed a multitude of commercials as well as every episode of the award-winning comedy television series for BBC Two.
