Event
Ruby Blue
At 65, Jack (Bob Hoskins) is consumed by past guilt and regret. His strained relationship with his son is severed upon the death of his wife and Jack, lost and alone in self loathing, spirals into decline. A glimpse of hope arrives in the unlikely form of eight-year-old Florrie, a soft-natured girl who moves in next door and delights in his long neglected racing pigeon Ruby. When Jacks glamorous French neighbor, Stephanie (Josiane Balasko), takes pity on him, Jack cannot help but fall for her charms. When Stephanie reveals that she is transgendered and Jacks innocent friendship with Florrie is under suspicion, his life is thrown into turmoil once again. Eventually, tragedy forces him to confront his prejudices, face his fears, and challenge those around him in a bid to reclaim his happiness and win back Stephanie's love. RUBY BLUE, Dir. Jan Dunn, 2008, UK, 112 min
