RED ROAD


The film marks the feature-debut of Academy Award®-winning director ANDREA ARNOLD who also wrote the script based on characters created by LONE SCHERFIG and ANDERS THOMAS JENSEN.

SYNOPSIS


Jackie (KATE DICKIE) works as a CCTV operator. Each day she watches over a small part of the world, protecting the people living their lives under her gaze. One day a man (TONY CURRAN) appears on her monitor, a man she thought she would never see again, a man she never wanted to see again. Now she has no choice, she is compelled to confront him.
