2024 ( UK ) (Drama)
Starring: Saoirse Ronan, Saskia Reeves, Stephen Dillane
Director: Nora Fingscheidt
Fresh out of rehab, Rona (Saoirse Ronan) returns to the wild Orkney islands after more than a decade away. As she reconnects with the dramatic landscape where she grew up, memories of her childhood merge with more recent challenging events that have set her on the road to recovery.

This is a powerful drama that shows the devastating effects of alcohol abuse and learning to overcome difficult challenges and provides a positive portrayal that ends with a liberating message. It is also visually stunning work, capturing the isolation and beauty of the Orkney locations.
