Brand new Alan Bennett play adaptation Allelujah releases in cinemas next year, and RadioTimes.com<\/a> has got an exclusive first look at the film with a heart-warming trailer.<\/p>\n

Allelujah, which is based on Bennett\u2019s 2018 play of the same name, tells the story of a geriatric ward in a small Yorkshire hospital which is threatened with closure. Upon this news, the hospital decides to fight back, galvanising the local community by inviting a news crew to film their preparations for a concert in honour of the hospital\u2019s most distinguished nurse.<\/p>\n

The film is said to celebrate \u201cthe spirit of the elderly patients whilst paying tribute to the deep humanity of the medical staff battling with limited resources and ever-growing demand\u201d.<\/p>\n

You can watch the full first trailer for Allelujah right here, now.<\/p>
