Synopsis:
Set in 1949 France, Les Choristes follows Clément Mathieu, a kind-hearted but disillusioned music teacher who takes a job supervising a boarding school for troubled boys. The school is ruled with an iron fist, but Mathieu introduces a different approach — forming a choir that changes the boys’ lives forever. Through music, hope is reborn in a place of despair.
This touching story about redemption, resilience, and the transformative power of music captured hearts worldwide and was nominated for two Academy Awards, including Best Foreign Language Film. The soundtrack, featuring the famous song “Vois sur ton chemin”, remains iconic to this day.
