Set in the fictional town of Ramsden, Yorkshire, The Choral is a film about a community that recruits boys to form a choir during World War One.
The trailer features several locations in the World Heritage Site of Saltaire, including Salts Mill, Victoria Hall, the Leeds Liverpool Canal, as well as the distinctive streets of the village.
A local train station also gets airtime in the trailer, which lasts two minutes and 38 seconds.
Who stars in The Choral?
Harry Potter star Ralph Fiennes plays the lead character, Dr Henry Guthrie.
The movie also stars Roger Allam, Mark Addy, Alun Armstrong, Robert Emms, and Simon Russell Beale.

What is The Choral about?
The bio for the film reads: “1916. As war rages on the Western Front, the Choral Society in Ramsden, Yorkshire, has lost most of its men to the army.
“The Choral’s ambitious committee, determined to press ahead, decides to recruit local young males to swell their ranks.
“They must also engage a new chorus master, and despite their suspicions that he has something to hide, their best bet seems to be Dr Henry Guthrie – driven, uncompromising, and recently returned from a career in Germany.
“As conscription papers start to arrive, the whole community discovers that the best response to the chaos that is laying waste to their lives is to make music together.”

Saltaire the scene for new movie
Photos taken in June 2024 showed Fiennes walking around the film set in a brown suit.
Another image displayed an old-fashioned horse and carriage on the set, and a different photo showed a group of extras lined up outside a post office.
Saltaire was transformed for the filming, and images showed how shops were given vintage facades.
The village has also been used as a filming location for many other productions, including Netflix drama The English Game and Agatha Christie’s The ABC Murders.
