The Old Sun

By Richard Arterton

How much are we willing to endure in the name of forgiveness?

Set against the backdrop of World War II, the apartheid era in South Africa, and pre-Brexit Britain, The Old Sun delves into profound questions at the core of the human experience.

Jack Kogia, a septuagenarian and lifelong rogue, finds his days numbered. As he reflects on a life of excess, he enlists a former teacher, Pearce, to help him seek atonement with his estranged family.

What ensues is a journey of indulgence and adventure, culminating in a profound exploration of forgiveness and the far-reaching consequences of addiction.
