Long Way Back (12A)
Dir. Brett Harvey, UK, 2022, 93 mins. Cast. Tristan Sturrock, Chloe Endean, Susan Penhaligon.
Reluctant father David has spent his life running away: from his foster home, from responsibilities, from his marriage, from his daughter. But now, due to a situation beyond his control, his estranged daughter Lea is thrown back into his life: she’s leaving university under tragic circumstances, and David is the only person who can make the trip and drive her home to Cornwall. As they make the long journey home, David tries to make up for a lifetime of disappointments and his own shortcomings as father and daughter attempt to reconnect... But is it too late?
The road home is never straightforward.
We are delighted to welcome director Brett Harvey to the screening on Thursday 22 September for an Intro + Q&A. This will be hosted by Plymouth-based cinematographer Amber Amare.
