Actors Barry Keoghan (“The Banshees of Inisherin”) and Christopher Abbott (“Catch-22”) are replacing Paul Mescal and Tom Burke respectively in MUBI’s “Bring Them Down” which is wrapping production in Ireland.
The story follows Michael (Abbott), the last son of a shepherding family, who lives with his ailing father Ray (Colm Meaney). Burdened by a terrible secret, Michael has isolated himself from the world.
When a conflict with rival farmer Gary (Paul Ready) and his son Jack (Keoghan) escalates, Michael is drawn into a devastating chain of events, forcing him to confront the horrors of his past and leaving both families permanently altered. Nora-Jane Noone and Susan Lynch co-star.
The project marks the debut feature of “Stalker” and “Fire” shorts filmmaker Chris Andrews. Ivana MacKinnon, Ruth Treacy, Julianne Forde, Jacob Swan Hyam, Jean-Yves Roubin and Cassandre Warnauts produce.
