Rangoon, Burma, 1917. Edward (Gonçalo Waddington), a civil servant for the British Empire, runs away from his fiancée Molly (Crista Alfaiate) the day she arrives to get married. During his travels, however, panic gives way to melancholy. Contemplating the emptiness of his existence, the cowardly Edward wonders what has become of Molly. But determined to get married and amused by Edward’s move, Molly follows his trail. Miguel Gomes’ GRAND TOUR is a travel film unlike any other, a stunningly told story that blends classic Hollywood style with contemporary landscapes, exploring how European empires have framed how we see the world.
