On the beautiful island of Santaniki, close to Crete, it's not all white
sands and sunshine. When retired bookseller Ariadne Blunt suggests the
English residents form a choir, there are groans of resistance. After a
little persuasion, the group gather in Ariadne's olive garden to
rehearse, but each member of this choir has their own anxieties and
secrets. Ariadne's partner, Hebe, is in failing health. Clive struggles
to accept the loss of his wife while Della, the Pilates teacher, drinks
too much and Chloe, Queen Bee of the village society, faces a family
dilemma. Then there is Mel, the real songbird amongst them, English wife
of a taverna owner who hides her talent until the choir inspires her to
raise her voice once more. In this tiny community, the choir brings the
residents together like never before in a bittersweet tale of love and
loss--and how life can begin again when you let go of the past.
