Info
Rona, fresh out of rehab, returns to the Orkney Islands; a place both wild and beautiful right off the Scottish coast. After more than a decade of living life on the edge in London, where she both found and lost love, Rona – now 30 – attempts to come to terms with her troubled past. As she reconnects with the dramatic landscape where she grew up, memories of her traumatic childhood merge with more recent challenging events that have set her on the path to recovery.

“An inspired surprise: a portrait of addiction and recovery both visceral and lyrical, reflective and electric.”
★★★★ Danny Leigh, Financial Times
In every shot and every scene, mostly in closeup, Ronan carries the film with her unselfconsciously fierce and focused presence. Out-of-control-drunk acting in montage is a difficult thing to bring off, but she does it with intelligence and plausibility.”
★★★★ Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
“The Outrun’s true tether, however, is Ronan, and here she works to all her greatest strengths. The film wraps entirely around her, yet she’s far too honest an actor to ever play up to the audience’s expectations of a woman in crisis.”
★★★★ Clarisse Loughrey, The Independent
“An exceptional performance from Saoirse Ronan powers this affecting, slow-moving drama about addiction and hope.”
★★★★ Anna Smith, Total Film
“Lit up in a glow of stormy sea spray, Orkney is majestic. As is the mighty Ronan”
★★★★ Stephen A. Russell, Time Out
