Exclusive A special look at The Road Dance

Starring Hermione Corfield, Will Fletcher and Mark Gatiss, The Road Dance tells the story of a young girl who lives in the Outer Hebrides in Scotland in the years just before World War I.

Kirsty Macleod (Hermione Corfield) dreams of a better life away from the isolation that suffocates her in a small village on an island in the Outer Scottish Hebrides.

Suppressing these aspirations, she sees her lover Murdo (Will Fletcher) conscripted for service in the First World War, soon to set off and fight alongside the other young men from the village.

A road dance is held in their honour the evening before they depart, and it's on this fateful evening that Kirsty's life takes a dramatic and tragic turn.

The Road Dance is in cinemas nationwide from Friday, 20 May
