Heaven’s Edge explores the story of an Australian RAF rear gunner ten years after the second world war. Inspired by the real-life experiences of Irish actor Jamie Crerar’s grandfather Jack Kennedy, who enlisted at 18 and flew with the 101 Squadron, the film sheds light on the young civilians who became airmen in WWII—brave, hastily trained, and forever changed. Shot on 16mm in the Boyne Valley, this moving tribute explores courage, survival, and the haunting legacy of war.
