Introduction

Estranged brothers reunite in a remote cabin. Forced to confront their painful upbringing, they try to process their separate journeys as a result of generational and lived trauma. Featuring tremendous performances from Day-Lewis – who also co-wrote the screenplay – Sean Bean, Samantha Morton and newcomer Samuel Bottomley, Ronan Day-Lewis’ impressive directorial debut skilfully surveys the bonds between fathers, sons and brothers.
