Ten years after being best friends and roommates at uni, Chris and Lluis meet up again and set out on a 600 kilometre hike through the Scottish Highlands. Their plan is to follow The Cape Wrath Trail and spend 30 days together to rekindle their once-powerful friendship.
But along the way, the two men struggle to connect. Chris remains preoccupied with his work and life at home and Lluis has his focus on simply completing the trail as a testament to his determination.
But the solitude and silence of the Highlands slowly works its magic as they confront long ignored truths about themselves and their friendship.
“Set against the challenge and demands of long-distance hiking, The North wonderfully explores the intricacies of friendship against the backdrop of the beautifully stark landscapes of the Highlands.” – IMDB
