A poetic, life-affirming road movie, 500 Miles follows a broken family forced back together when two young brothers run away from home. While their parents (Dunne and Socha) search desperately, Finn (Roman Griffin Davis) and his younger brother Charlie (Dexter Sol Ansell) set off from Yorkshire on an adventure that brings them over land and sea to Ireland’s west coast.
