WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Finnie (Stanley), a 30-something fish factory worker, longs for the days when he was a teenager, spending his nights racing cars through the streets of Fraserburgh, Scotland.

Run is the tale of building up the courage to tackle the realities of life head-on, with an outstanding turn by Mark Stanley as the 30-something figure at the centre of it all.
