Uisdean wants forgiveness. After 16 years in prison, he’s released to the Highlands to juggle crofting dreams against caring for his father. But it takes an extraordinary love story to elude accusations in a film that drifts effortlessly between opposing portraits of the same man, as carer and murderer. Filmed over four years, the film explores what gets sacrificed when people need to see the best in each other using compelling storytelling and stunning imagery. 16 Years Tlll Summer blurs the line between the fairy-tale of the heart and the rational judgement of society ; magic realism and documented tragedy. A story of redemption, interrupted, in the Highlands of Scotland.
Followed by a Q&A with director Lou McLoughlan.
