An orange haired Saoirse Ronan stands on a beach in profile. She wears a blue mackintosh. The sea thunders behind her.

About The Outrun

Saoirse Ronan’s bracing performance as a young alcoholic in recovery is the focal point of Nora Fingscheidt’s poignant adaptation of Amy Liptrot’s award-winning memoir.

When 30-year-old Rona’s alcoholism causes the dissolution of her long-term relationship with Daynin and derails her promising career in biology, she leaves her ragged London life to dry out where she grew up, in Orkney. On her father’s farm, she begins to inch towards inner peace and sobriety, while tackling some hard truths about his bipolarity and why her mother left for the mainland.
