A new film follows a choir of senior citizens as they practise and perform rock and punk songs in a unique way.

The director of "Young@heart" was moved to make the film after seeing the group of pensioners from Massachussets perform in London and ended up following the group around for six weeks.

But alongside rocking out to songs such as "I want to be sedated" by the Ramones and "Staying alive" by the BeeGees, the choir's members come to terms with life and death.
