Synopsis
Life is a journey and The Last Bus takes our old soldier, 90-year-old Tom Harper on an epic trip from his home of fifty years — a remote village in the most northerly point of Scotland — back to the place he was born – close to England’s most southerly point. Battling against time, age and fate, desperate to keep a promise to his beloved wife Mary, our intrepid hero Tom embarks on an odyssey, revisiting his past, connecting with the modern world and a diverse, multi-cultural Britain he has never experienced. The Last Bus is a road movie; a film about love, loss and the human spirit. A film that reminds us we are not alone - and that we're all on this ride together…
