A family drama of love, loss and hope. Following the death of a loved one, a British-Caribbean family struggles to come to terms with their grief. Isolated by their generational beliefs and challenges to their faith and mental health, they live between the things they do and do not say. Running With Lions explores the journey of one family's reconciliation after loss and the rediscovery of love and joy.
