Retired Harold Fry receives a letter from his former colleague Queenie Hennessy—now dying in hospice—and spontaneously decides to walk over 600 miles across England to see her, believing that as long as he walks, she’ll live. Beginning in Devon with just a coat and yachting shoes, Harold’s journey transforms into a gentle pilgrimage, during which he meets strangers who energize his soul and spur him on. As miles pass, he confronts deep-seated regrets: a fractured marriage with his wife Maureen, grief over his son David’s suicide, and grief over his mother’s departure. Along the way, the media latches on, his pilgrimage becomes a movement, and his quiet quest becomes a powerful examination of faith, resilience, and connection. In the end, Harold must decide whether reaching Queenie is enough—or if healing lies elsewhere.
