It’s raining, it’s Midsummer’s weekend in Edinburgh, and the screwed up lives of two thirty somethings are about to collide. Read more …
He’s a failing car salesman on the fringes of the city's underworld and she’s a high-powered divorce lawyer with a taste for other people’s husbands. She’s out of his league and he’s not her type at all. They absolutely should not sleep together, ever; which is of course, exactly why they do.
With a bag filled with cash, Helena and Bob go on a legendary weekend one midsummer in Edinburgh.Midsummer is a quirky, charming love story of bridge-burning, car chases, wedding bust-ups, bondage miscalculations, midnight trysts and self-loathing hangovers.
We’re privileged to watch something ordinary and a bit squalid gradually transfigured into beauty, by the sheer force of art, love, and hope.
On Tour, from Wednesday October 14, 2015, until Saturday October 31, 2015.
