This year’s scaled-down, “special one-year iteration” of the Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF) will open on August 18 with the world premiere of Silent Roar, the debut feature from Scottish writer and director Johnny Barrington.
Billed as a “teenage tale of surfing, sex, and hellfire,” the pic is set in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides and stars newcomer Louis McCartney as Dondo, a young surfer struggling to accept his father’s recent disappearance at sea.
Caught up in grief, he is brought to his senses by his rebellious crush Sas, a high achiever who dreams of escaping the island.
