Red Riding is genre drama at its most powerful.” - Independent

The final instalment of the Red Riding trilogy brings an explosive finality and some satisfying closure. Directed by filmmaker Anand Tucker (Shopgirl, And When Did You Last See Your Father?), Red Riding: 1983 returns to Yorkshire as another girl goes missing and two new suspects enter the fray.

Forced to face the legacy of his past indiscretions, Detective Chief Superintendant Maurice Jobson (David Morrissey) races against time to piece together a gruesome puzzle.

Also features a bravura performance from Mark Addy (The Full Monty) as a solicitor slowly uncovering a catalogue of police cover-ups.

The first and second instalments of the Red Riding trilogy are also screening at this year's Festival.
