Synopsis

In Whitby, Reith runs the local donkey rides with his three children, Angie, Polly, and Ben.  As Whitby shuts for the winter, their Uncle Blythe  returns from prison, looking to collect a long-standing family debt. When Reith unexpectedly passes away, the children are left to cope for themselves.  Angie, the eldest, decides to flee with her siblings and two donkeys.

After a chase through the alleyways of Whitby, the children escape into the wilderness and beauty of the North York Moors.  Here begins a search for their estranged mother Maggie.  With Blythe in close pursuit, the children and donkeys venture west across the country, crossing paths with chancers, thieves, and making new friends.  Through their misadventures they discover what it truly means to be a family.

The film’s cast includes Tara Fitzgerald (Waking The Dead), Lee Boardman, plus Mark Addy & Steve Huison (The Full Monty).

The cinematic views of Whitby harbour, Abbey and surrounding moors are worth the cinema ticket alone.
