Rose-Lynn Harlan is a single mother and ex-con from Glasgow who dreams of becoming a country star. Starring top Irish actor/ singer Jessie Buckley (Beast) with Julie Walters. 

“Rose-Lynn has dreamt of becoming a country music star for as long as anyone can remember. But Glasgow isn’t exactly Nashville, and, as a convicted criminal and single mother of two young children, Rose-Lynn is more country song than country starlet. Just released from prison, forced to wear an ankle monitor and keep curfew, she can’t return to her job as the house-band singer at Glasgow’s Grand Ole Opry … Rose-Lynn lands a new job as a housekeeper for the lovely, and very posh, Susannah (Sophie Okonedo). After catching her singing on the job, Susannah’s kids quickly become Rose-Lynn’s biggest fans and Susannah her enthusiastic patron, determined to help her get to Nashville. But Rose-Lynn’s dreams come at a cost.” (Toronto International Film Festival)

This New Zealand film explores themes of spirituality, wellbeing and religion. CAMINO SKIES is the inspirational journey of six strangers from New Zealand and Australia walking the 800 km Camino de Santiago to overcome the personal and physical trauma that life has dealt them.

Through blisters, shin splints and heat, the Camino forces pilgrims to defy their age and physical ability, while also acting as a catalyst for change. Both heartbreaking and inspirational, ‘Camino Skies’ is an uplifting story about everyday people doing the extraordinary.

Dominion Post Graeme Tuckett 3.5/5 Stars “Rory’s Way is a slight, dated and punishingly predictable film. It is also extraordinarily beautiful to look at, winningly performed and doesn’t outstay its welcome by a second.”
