It's never too late.

Edith Moore (Edie) is a bitter, gruff woman in her eighties. In the months following her husband George's death, Edie's strained relationship with her daughter Nancy begins to worsen. The question over Edie's future looms large; while Edie tries hard to convince Nancy she can manage fine by herself, Nancy is making plans for her mother to move to a retirement home. Edie feels like it is the beginning of the end. It seems she will die with all the regrets of her past intact and one regret haunts her most of all. When Edie was married, her father planned a climbing trip for them in the Scottish Highlands. Edie yearned to go, but her husband George, a difficult and controlling man, made her stay at home, nearly thirty years later, Edie decides to make the trip herself alone.

Critics Reviews for Edie:

• “Not a lot really happens in Edie; the pace is gentle and the story familiar, but it's a pleasant, easy experience – aided by the dramatic mountain footage.” – Francesca Rudkin, New Zealand Herald
• “In common with its difficult protagonist and her hardscrabble holiday, director Simon Hunter's film is pleasingly gritty, even in moments of levity.” – Tara Brady, Irish Times
• “Hancock convinces as the touchy but tenacious Edie, and the film's sometimes saccharine storyline is underscored by moments of melancholy. It's slight, but moving.” – Paul Whitington, Irish Independent
• “A committed performance from the redoubtable stage and screen veteran Sheila Hancock drives the final third of this wilderness drama into sublime places.” – Kevin Maher, Times (UK)
