Edge

Edge

It's a cold winter's day on the East Sussex coast, and a disparate group gravitate to a hotel situated close to a crumbling cliff.

Elly (Maxine Peake) gives the impression she just wants to be alone; musician Glen (Paul Hilton) is in search of inspiration, and is keen to endear himself to others visiting the hotel's dining room; Phillip (Joe Dempsie) and Sophie (Nichola Burley) have set up a date over the internet; and Wendy (Marjorie Yates) has locked herself in her room, with a grim objective.

Hotel maid Agata (Anna Wendzikowska) flits through the rooms, intrigued by the lives of the guests, and keen to make a connection with them.

Gradually, the motives and intentions of each of these lost souls are revealed. - Michael Hayden: London Film Festival.
