500 Miles

- OFFICIAL SELECTION: Dublin International Film Festival - 

The always-brilliant Bill Nighy stars in 500 Miles, a life-affirming celebration of the human spirit that follows a broken family who are forced to come together when their two young boys run away from home.

After hearing their parents fight, Finn (Roman Griffin Davis, Jojo Rabbit) and Charlie (Dexter Sol Ansell, breakout star of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms) sneak out of their house in Doncaster.

So unfolds an epic road trip from Yorkshire, over land and sea, to the wild West Coast of Ireland. Their destination? The small seaside town of Dingle, County Kerry, where they will reunite with their beloved Grandfather, John (Nighy).

It’s a long, treacherous journey - 500 miles where a lot could go wrong... And while Dingle holds happy memories for the boys, Grandpa John has remained estranged from Finn and Charlie’s parents after fateful events the previous summer. 

With knockout performances from all involved, 500 Miles will make you laugh, cry, and hug the people you love.
