ALI and AVA, both lonely for different reasons, meet and sparks fly. Over a lunar month a deep connection begins to grow, despite the legacy of AVA’s past relationship, and ALI’s emotional turmoil at the breakdown of his marriage.
“Dir. Barnard once again proves herself the bard of the British working class. In Ali & Ava, she abandons her occasionally bleak realism for a kind of stubborn hopefulness, letting the delight of unexpected connection break through the storm clouds.” ~Jude Dry, IndieWire
“A compassionate and tenderly performed love story, with a musical current coursing through it. British cinema is lucky to have Clio Barnard.” ~Beth Webb, Empire
