This thrilling folk-horror story set over seven hallucinatory days in rural Scotland on the brink of change, shows us what happens when people decide what a society should be.
Facing a period of uncertainty and economic turmoil, two childhood best friends lay witness to series of unexpected invaders from the outside world.
Their arrival brings the potential of irrevocable damage to their idyllic way of life in this spellbinding exploration of superstition, the trauma of modernity and the looming threat of the outsider.
Adapted from Jim Crace’s Booker Prize-nominated novel filmmaker Athina Rachel Tsangari brings a this deeply textured story to life. With striking performances from Caleb Landry Jones (Nitram) and co-starring Rosy McEwen, Arinzé Kene, Thalissa Teixeira, and Frank Dillane.
