EIFF welcomes legendary film editor Thelma Schoonmaker in person to introduce her late husband Michael Powell's classic 1937 film presented in a digital restoration. Set on an isolated Scottish island, Powell's beautifully filmed and stirring film dramatises the shifts in play in a remote community as older generations struggle to retain their culture as younger islanders look to leave in search of more modern lifestyles.
