Flying Blind

A successful aerospace engineer finds her world turned upside down in this thriller from first-time director Katarzyna Klimkiewicz.

While leading a well-ordered, focused life designing military drones for her Bristol-based employer, 40-something engineer Frankie (Helen McCrory) meets and falls for the charms of French-Algerian student Kahil (Najib Oudghiri), who is 20 years her junior.

For all that she is blissfully swept up in her new romance, Frankie's foundations are shaken when she finds herself detained by the security services, who have taken an interest in Kahil.

Torn between her feelings for Kahil and the doubts beginning to surface in her mind, Frankie sets out to discover the truth about her lover's motives.
