Filmtheater Fanfare | The outrun

To further unwind after her stay in rehab, 29-year-old Rona returns from the hustle and bustle of London after more than a decade to the Scottish Orkney Islands of her childhood. There, her memories merge with recent events.

The outrun, the film, is the film adaptation of the British bestseller of the same name, in which Saoirse Ronan's lead role should be called Oscar-worthy here. You may remember her from Little women (8.0) from 2019?

The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Festival and was selected for the Berlinale. "Saoirse Ronan is remarkable in a sensitive recovery drama". (The Guardian ****)
