Depuis 50 ans, Tom habite un village reculé tout au nord de l’Ecosse. Mais maintenant, cet homme de 90 ans se met en route pour un long voyage en bus de ligne, à destination de Land’s End, l’extrême pointe du sud-ouest de la Grande-Bretagne, son lieu de naissance. Son épouse bien-aimée est décédée et il lui a promis de ramener ses cendres là où ils se sont rencontrés, où ils sont tombés amoureux. Avec une bonne dose de courage, d’optimisme et de spontanéité, il affronte sa propre vulnérabilité. Jusque-là, la Grande-Bretagne moderne aux mille visages lui était inconnue. Elle lui réservera bon nombre d’aventures et de rencontres enrichissantes. « The Last Bus » est un road movie qui fait chaud au cœur car il rappelle au public que nous sommes tous d’une manière ou d’une autre en route…

John, lives in a remote area of Scotland. The primary industry is potato farming and John is a picker who lives for the harvests; it is all he has in his life. He yearns for a life that he does not know how to make for himself - a home and family. John exhibits all the signs of someone who has suffered unknown tragedies in his life, but those reasons are hidden from the viewer. While driving back to town on a dark and isolated road, John comes upon a car stopped up ahead. He immediately can see a hose attached to the exhaust pipe. He has come upon a suicide. Suddenly, headlights appear in the opposite direction and John's immediate reaction is to hide, though he has done nothing wrong. That choice leads John to take the body of the dead young woman to a shed in the woods.
