Directed by Matthews ( X+Y, Williams) from a screenplay penned by Malcolm Campbell, 500 Miles is described as a “life-affirming road movie” about runaway Finn (Roman Griffin Davis) and his livewire younger brother Charlie (Dexter Sol Ansell). “500 Miles is an original, charming, and dramatic film with a huge emotional heart that will resonate strongly with cinema audiences across the UK and Ireland,” Kamasa said of the acquisition.
