A seemingly unremarkable man learns that his old friend Queenie is dying. He goes to mail her a letter, but instead decides to walk to see her 500 miles away, much to the despair of his wife Maureen who wants him back home. Irish National Television writes, "Here's Oscar winner Jim Broadbent giving arguably the performance of his illustrious career," while the New Spectator adds, "The whole film feels at once both natural and utterly rich and strange -- truly miraculous, that pilgrimage." Admission is $3 for the public, $2 for ISU staff/faculty and free for ISU students with a valid Bengal ID.
