Emma Wassell: Laoch

Emma Wassell: Laoch is a powerful and deeply moving story of resilience, loss and the unbreakable spirit of a warrior. When Scotland international Emma Wassell is diagnosed with a 27cm tumour in her chest, her world is turned upside down. At the same time, she is navigating the devastating loss of her mother - facing a battle that stretches far beyond the rugby pitch. With her future in the game uncertain, the film follows Emma through her darkest moments and the long, gruelling road back. Through intimate access and raw, honest storytelling, Laoch captures a journey of grief, courage and determination. From life-changing surgery to the painstaking process of rehabilitation, guided by Scottish Rugby’s medical team, Emma must rebuild not only her strength, but her belief that she can wear the Scotland jersey again. Named after the Scottish Gaelic word for “warrior”, 'Emma Wassell: Laoch' is an inspiring reminder that even in life’s toughest battles, hope, connection and resilience can carry you through. All tickets for this event are FREE! Reserving seats in advance is strongly advised to avoid disappointment.
