Award Winning Independent Cinema

Hot on the heels of On Chesil Beach, Ian McEwan again adapts his own novel in this riveting drama about a High Court judge who finds her personal and professional crises colliding. This moving drama follows Fiona, a judge who is married to her work - as her own marriage flounders. She must decide if Adam a 17-year-old with leukemia, should have a blood transfusion that will save his life - against his Jehovah's Witness beliefs. Fiona finds herself taking unusual measures to reach her final verdict - measures that will have far-reaching consequences. This is a heart-breaking, intelligent and sophisticated drama that brings to life complex moral questions.

Dir. Richard Eyre, UK, 2018, 105 mins. Cast. Emma Thompson, Stanley Tucci, Fionn Whitehead.
