Hallam Foe is a 2007 British drama film directed by David Mackenzie based on the novel written by Peter Jinks.

Hallam Foe premiered at the Berlin Film Festival on 16 February 2007 and competed for the Golden Bear for Best Motion Picture.

Hallam Foe is a teenage loner who lives on his father Julius' large estate near Peebles.

Hallam is convinced that his stepmother, Verity, is responsible for his mother's death by drowning two years earlier.

Hallam initially refuses due to his suspicion of Verity, but she uses his diaries first to have sex with him and then to blackmail him into leaving.

Upon arrival in Edinburgh, Hallam sees Kate, an administrator at the Balmoral Hotel, located in the city centre.

Kate first invites him home with her that night, and when she attempts to seduce him, he begins to get uncomfortable and instead they sleep in the same bed.

This cathartic moment enables him to move on for the first time, and the film ends with him happy and content walking the streets of Edinburgh.

Domino Records provided the entire soundtrack with bands including Franz Ferdinand with their song "Hallam Foe Dandelion Blow" along with songs from James Yorkston, u.n.p.o.c., King Creosote, Sons and Daughters, Four Tet, Psapp, Juana Molina and Test Icicles, amongst others.

[citation needed] The animated title sequence is by artist David Shrigley, who also does all the drawings and writing in Hallam's diaries.
