Mona Fasvold’s THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE is stunning new musical drama about the creation of the Shaker Movement, co-written with Brady Corbet (The Brutalist), and led by Oscar Nominee Amanda Seyfried (Mank, Mamma Mia!).

An epic fable about religious leader Ann Lee (Seyfried), the founding leader of the Shaker Movement, who was proclaimed by her followers as the female Christ. Alongside her devoted brother William (Lewis Pullman) and husband Abraham (Christopher Abbott), Ann, one of the rare female religious leaders at the time, went on to build one of the largest utopian societies in American history. Exploring the Movement’s pacifism, architecture, and its worship through music and dances, Fastvold’s examination of one of pre-Revolutionary America’s most seminal religious figures is as compelling and complex as its subject.

Featuring original music from Daniel Blumberg, the Oscar winning composer behind The Brutalist, THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE is a breathtaking and passionate piece of filmmaking.
