Blessed (2008 film)

Blessed is a British drama film released on 24 October 2008 that was written and directed by Mark Aldridge.

Its cast included well-known actors James Nesbitt, Natascha McElhone and Gary Lewis, as well as young Lillian Woods.

It was filmed at the Ornsay Lighthouse on the islet Eilean Sionnach, and other locations around the Scottish Isle of Skye such as the village of Kyleakin.

He sticks to a regular but lonely routine until one day he discovers that a lifeboat containing a little girl of about seven called Charlotte has landed on the island.

At the end of the film Peter has to persuade his food supplier to keep quiet about the little girl's presence on the island so she is not taken away by the authorities, he agrees and the film ends showing the viewer several "family snapshots" of an adult Charlotte and an older Peter, thus implying that she remained with him for the rest of her childhood.
