A tense and gripping thriller that follows a rural west Irish shepherding family which is thrust into battle on several fronts: internal strife, hostility within the family and a rivalry with another farmer.

When the ongoing rivalry between farmers Michael (Christopher Abbott) and Jack (Barry Keoghan from ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’ and ‘Saltburn’) suddenly escalates, it triggers a chain of events that take increasingly devastating turns, leaving both families permanently altered. From first-time filmmaker Christopher Andrews and co-starring Colm Meaney, Paul Ready and Nora-Jane Noone, this is a fierce, muscular debut that signals a bold new cinematic voice. The two leads create a gripping atmosphere, with Keoghan – as usual – proving that he is one of the best actors of the moment.
