Amazing Grace + Q&A 18

Hannah Walters, writer/actor/producer Daniel P. Lewis and director Ruth Carney join us for a Q&A after the screening.

Grace, a crisis helpline volunteer, forms an unexpected bond with Walter, a deeply isolated man on the brink of a mental health breakdown. As their conversations unfold, she helps him confront the childhood trauma and shame he has spent a lifetime trying to survive.

Amazing Grace combines raw social realism with a restrained cinematic style to present an honest and deeply human portrayal of emotional struggle, while ultimately offering a message of hope and resilience.

The film stars Hannah Walters (A Thousand Blows, Boiling Point and Emmy and BAFTA winning producer of Adolescence) as Grace, in her first leading role in a feature film, alongside writer, producer and actor Daniel P. Lewis as Walter. The supporting cast includes BAFTA nominated James Nelson-Joyce (This City is Ours; A Thousand Blows), BAFTA Winner Chanel Cresswell (This Is England; The Gentleman), BAFTA nominee Sonny Walker (The Gathering), Kelly Condron, Angela Lonsdale, Connor McIntyre, and introducing Raphael Murphy.
