The Raven On The Jetty

Country:UK
On his 9th birthday, Thomas travels with his mother to visit his estranged father who, since an acrimonious divorce, has abandoned urban living in favour of an isolated rural life in the English Lake District.

As a digital native city boy, Thomas's encounter with the natural world, and his gradual understanding of the pivotal connection he provides for his, ultimately, lonely parents, leads to realisation and discovery. There are things his parents don’t know about each other that only he can reveal.

Perhaps he has the power and the means to change everything.

For this screening, hosted by Director Erik Knudsen, we hope to welcome members of the cast as well as one very special star.
