Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
An Irish shepherding family thrust into battle on several fronts: internal strife, hostility within the family, rivalry with another farmer. Paternalism, heritage, and the generational trauma cycle through the cultural prism of Ireland.
"Bring Them Down is the intense feature debut by filmmaker Chris Andrews. The plot tells both sides of a feud between farmers (Barry Keoghan and Christopher Abbott) from two rival families in rural Ireland, whose sudden escalation leads to violent and disastrous consequences. It's a film that successfully brings the emotional complexity of both parties involved, making the sudden violence all the more jarring. However, its solid direction and nuanced performances manage to steer all the emotions in the right direction."
