A brilliant cast assemble for Peter Weir's final film based on the memoir of a former prisoner of war.
In deepest Siberia, in a gulag surrounded by impenetrable snowbound terrain, a young Polish national is sentenced to twenty years of hard labour. Almost as soon as he arrives, whispers of a prison break escape his lips sending him and a ragtag group of prisoners on an impossibly perilous journey through the harshest land, across unfriendly borders and into the unknown.
Befitting the director's lasting impact on the world stage, Peter Weir's final film is an epic cross-country journey spanning countries, continents and seemingly unsurmountable barriers. Jim Sturgess leads an overwhelming cast including Ed Harris, Colin Farrell, Mark Strong and a young Saoirse Ronan.
Join us in the cinema for a special screening of Peter Weir's final film and a sneak peek at the Focus on Peter Weir program ahead.
