Calendar Girls is a heartwarming comedy based on a true story about a group of women from Yorkshire who pose nude for a calendar to raise money for a leukemia unit at their local hospital after the death of one of their husbands. Baked goods, floral arrangements and Christmas carol sheets are the ladies’ main wardrobe accessories for all 12 months of this glorious fundraising project. But what will these friends reveal to each other when the calendar brings international fame and all that comes with it?
