BHM Film: Hallelujah Anyhow

17 October 2018

When local pastor Adlyn meets and falls in love again with her old childhood sweetheart, she is forced to make an agonising choice between her faith, her family and her heart. Written by Jean ‘Binta’ Breeze, the film explores tensions and conflicts behind the scenes, and was a landmark film for British television in the early 1990s.

As part of Serendipity’s year round programme celebrating Black History Month every day, BHM Film brings together a collection of thought provoking documentaries and independent cinema.
