Never let me go is set in a
parallel universe where humans are cloned and prepared to donate their
healthy organs. It tells the story of friends Kathy, Ruth and Tommy and their
years at Hailsham, an isolated boarding school in the English
countryside. An idyllic place where they are told nothing about the
outside. Kathy's memories of those years at Hailsham will take her to confront the
reality of her childhood and present.
"Never Let Me Go is not a perfect film, but it is the sort of
film that - in spite of a few shortcomings - affects you on a profound
level. It haunts you long after you have left the cinema" (The Vine Entertainment). Starring Keira Knightley, Andrew Garfield, Carey Mulligan and directed by Mark Romanek.
