The Stone Angel

Sometimes it takes your whole life to get it right


The Stone Angel
Based on the bestselling novel by Margaret Laurence, this film looks at the life of a feisty woman who has lived an unconventional life. Her passionate heart has always ruled her head and her choices have put her at odds with family and friends. Reflecting on the life she has led, the men she has loved and lost, and the sons she has estranged, we follow her journey as she reconciles the decisions she has made. A note for the sensitive: the film features plenty of blasphemy.

115 minutes.
