Harold Fry was never meant to be a hero. Until, one day, he receives a letter from his dying friend, Queenie Hennessy, addressed from a hospice far away in Northern England. He has not heard from her in 20 years. He has done his best to forget what happened between them. Writing a brief reply, Harold realises a letter is not enough. He will walk the length of England and save his old friend. Leaving his puzzled, frustrated wife Maureen behind, Harold embarks on a walk of redemption that gradually becomes a contemporary pilgrimage through modern Britain.
This is a coming-of-age story as Harold (and Maureen) rediscover themselves. It is also a love story. Not a romance, but a universal story about love. The love of partnership, children, and of parents. The love of neighbours, of friends who have made their own sacrifices, of strangers whose stories might be unknown to us, but are as complex as our own. Above all, it is about not forgetting to love oneself.
After the loss of a friend, 12-year-old Jerome attends his first nine night.
Set in 1970s London, the film explores the duality of grief and celebration within the mourning period of Jamaican culture. Whilst paying homage to the generations before us who have been intentional about preserving tradition.
