Harry Macqueen : 2014

Harvey and Lola spent their childhood together, regularly visiting Harvey's family cottage in Cornwall. Then they grew up, Harvey returning home to get his head down and make some money, Lola leaving the country to live a life of travelling and adventure. A few years down the line, Harvey and Lola are re-united for a weekend away in the old cottage. What follows is a touching and beautiful story of an old friendship rekindled within a new context. As conversation gets earnest and the pair settle in to each other's company, nuances of a relationship more complicated than friendship begin to emerge – but they may be drifting away from each other faster than they realise. Set over one February weekend, it is the story of two old friends who escape the city for a trip full of nostalgia, love and new beginnings. A poetic journey of self-discovery and heartbreak in contemporary Britain, a very original and visually stunning road-trip film. Harry Macqueen's feature debut premiered at Raindance Film Festival 2014.
