Director Simon Hunter will be with us in person to introduce his wonderful film, and host a Q&A afterwards. One lucky ticket holder will win a rucksack from Falraven, supporters of the film.

At the age of 84, Edie (Sheila Hancock) is finally free of the ties that bound her to an invalid and domineering husband – and it is the moment to start making up for lost time.

Her goal is to climb a mountain, Suilven, in the Scottish Highlands. Local guide Jonny (Kevin Guthrie - Dunkirk) is the man to help her do it.

Movie Review World: "the relationship between the two is the key to the movie’s success... ‘one of the most tender on screen friendships of the year’."

Mike Mcgrail: "Sheila Hancock delivers the performance of a lifetime, she's an absolute legend, who at 84 offers a strong reminder that age is but a number. Her delivery of humour, emotion and duress is impeccable."
