Midwinter Break is directed by theater director Polly Findlay, who makes her feature directorial debut with the film. Stage credits include Middle (National Theatre), White Noise (Bridge Theatre),\u00a0A Number\u00a0(Bridge Theatre),\u00a0The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and Limehouse for The Donmar Warehouse<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n
