Bring Them Down
15
An Irish shepherding family are thrust into battle on several fronts: internal strife, hostility within the family and a deep rivalry with a neighbouring farmer. Starring Barry Keoghan and Christopher Abbott pitted against each other, it's a film of paternalism, heritage, and how generational trauma cycles through the cultural prism of rural Ireland.
Details
“Taut and mournful, it’s a lament for the mistakes made in anger, the wounds that fail to heal, and the past that never truly seems to be past at all.”
The Daily Beast
“What unfolds in Andrews’ screenplay, co-written with Jonathan Hourigan, has the grim inevitability of a Greek tragedy, no less violent than the feud at the centre of The Banshees of Inisherin, albeit without that film’s Irish black humour.”
Time Out
“This is a gnarly and fascinating thriller whose characters feel genuinely dangerous and unpredictable.”
