The Outrun is a 2024 drama film directed by Nora Fingscheidt from a screenplay she co-wrote with Amy Liptrot, and a story the two co-wrote with Daisy Lewis, based on the 2016 memoir of the same name by Liptrot. A co-production between the United Kingdom and Germany, the film premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival on January 19th, 2024.
After more than a decade of living life on the edge in London, where she both found and lost love, Rona (Saoirse Ronan) – 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.
The cast includes Saoirse Ronan, Paapa Essiedu, Nabil Elouahabi, Izuka Hoyle, Lauren Lyle, Saskia Reeves, and Stephen Dillane.
The Outrun is set to debut in theaters October 4th, courtesy of StudioCanal. Watch the official trailer below.
