Desc: The Road: A Story of Life & Death: Directed by Marc Isaacs. On the oldest Roman road in the capital, filmmaker Marc Isaacs weaves together numerous poignant stories of loss and the search for belonging into a tapestry of the human experience. Young Irishwoman Keelta leaves home to build a new life for herself on the road where old Irish labourer Billy is struggling to find meaning to his life. Peggy, a 95-year-old Jewish refugee from Vienna, and Brigitte, a German-born former air hostess, have both suffered bad husbands; Iqbal, an unassuming Indian hotel concierge, awaits the arrival of his wife from Kashmir. This film forces us to recognise the struggles and preoccupations of its characters as our own.
