EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">Domhnall Gleeson (<i>About Time</i>) stars in
this delightfully dotty comedy that took home the NEXT Innovator Award at this
year’s Sundance Film Festival.<br>
<br>
<b><i>The Incomer</i></b> follows siblings Isla (Gayle Rankin, <i>House of the
Dragon</i>) and Sandy (Grant O’Rourke, <i>Outlander</i>), who have lived alone
on a remote, windswept Scottish island for 30<br>
years since their parents disappeared.<br>
<br>
The siblings live a totally normal life, hunting seabirds, chatting to mythic
creatures, and defending their isle from dreaded incomers. But their world is
upended with the arrival of Daniel (Gleeson), an awkward and socially inept
council worker, come to uproot them to the mainland.<br>
<br>
Daniel brings with him the strange mainland customs of paperwork, veganism, and
wi-fi, while Isla and Sandy attempt to teach this outsider their eccentric
“ways of the gull.” As long-held beliefs begin to crumble, each of them must
confront the truth, embrace change, and dare to imagine a life beyond the
island.<br>
<br>
<b><i>The Incomer</i></b> is a winningly weird and refreshingly upbeat
must-see.</span>ComedyPT1H42M2026-11-02GBenDomhnall Gleeson
