BRING THEM DOWN (englische, irische OmeU) // Fantasy Filmfest Nights // Barry Keoghan
In the organizer's words:
Since a dramatic car accident in his youth, Michael (Christopher Abbott) has been looking after the family sheep farm on his own. When his neighbor and rival Gary, of all people, finds two of Michael's sheep dead, an old feud between the two flares up again, which inevitably threatens to drag Gary's son (Barry Keoghan) into the abyss as well. Christopher Andrews' feature film debut begins like classic Irish cinema with its pitch-black humor, but then develops into a dense, non-linear revenge drama - right up to the Greek tragedy, at the end of which no one escapes without bloody hands. The breathtaking shots of nature are repeatedly interrupted by spikes of violence and, at the latest when the sheep have to fear for their hind legs, it is clear that the bleating of these harmless animals has not been so disturbing since THE DARK.
