The Last Photograph

Synopsis

A random act of theft that has put Tom Hammond's life in a tailspin. His most treasured possession, a photograph of him with his son Luke... their last moment of shared happiness, has been stolen from his bookshop.
“The story is a simple one, made up of fragmented memories, the present and the past, told out of chronology. Love, loss, terror… and the hopeful promise of change.” (Danny Huston)
Edinburgh International FIlm Festival 2017 - World premiere
