The Light Between Oceans, GFT 27 and 28 December, 2016

This heartrending love story, adapted from the bestselling novel by M.L. Stedman, is the ultimate winter holiday weepie. The story begins as a slow-burn romance between WWI-veteran lighthouse keeper Tom (Fassbender) and local landowner’s daughter Isabel (Vikander). The one thing missing from their idyllic life is a baby, but this is the one thing that proves impossible. When a rowboat containing a newborn baby and a dead man washes up on their shore, they choose to raise the child as their own. That choice sets the stage for a heartbreaking story of love and sacrifice.
