First-look snaps of Barry Keoghan’s role in the new thriller movie, Bring Them Down, have been released. The plot centres around two squabbling farm families in the west of Ireland whose actions have a catastrophic fallout.
The film’s official brief is: “Michael, the last son of a shepherding family, lives with his ailing father, Ray. Burdened by guilt over the death of his mother, Michael has isolated himself from the outside world.
“When a conflict with rival farmer Gary and his son Jack 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.
