Edge

Carol Morley writes and directs this downbeat British mystery drama about six psychologically dispossessed guests at an out-of-season south coast cliff-top hotel. As time passes, tentative connections form between the six very different characters: the wistfully ageing Wendy (Marjorie Yates), a Polish chambermaid (Anna Wendzikowska), feisty teenager Sophie (Nichola Burley) and her internet date, Phillip (Jospeh Dempsie), withdrawn Elly (Maxine Peake) and washed-up pop singer Glen (Paul Hilton). Over the course of two days, as the hotel guests gradually begin to thaw, they stumble upon a purpose that unites them all.
