Catch Me Daddy

Synopsis

A girl in her late teens has run away from her family with her drifter boyfriend. Holed up together in a Yorkshire town on the edge of the moors, they live a hand-to-mouth existence. Aaron is AWOL from the army, while Laila knows her family won't let her run without a fight. Two carloads of bounty hunters roll into town asking questions and flashing a photo of Laila. Hardmen hired by the girl's father with her brother in tow. They find her. There's a confrontation. Her brother is killed. The stakes have gone up.
They've got to get out of town. They head onto the moors, pursued by men who will stop at nothing to bring Laila back to Daddy. Propelled to a violent conclusion, father and daughter come face to face in a terrible confrontation.

Based on Virginia Woolf’s funniest novel, NIGHT AND DAY is an un-romantic comedy about a passionate astronomer Katharine Hilbery who does everything she can to avoid romantic love and marriage. Fun and contemporary in tone, this refreshing film showcases an ensemble of humourous performances against the ravishing backdrop of London in 1910, advances in science and technology and crumbling Edwardian patriarchy. Virginia’s story is as relevant to today as it ever was: women balancing romantic love with careers!
