Starve Acre – Preview Screening

15

“This is a fantastically enigmatic horror film done beautifully well” – Film Threat

Exclusive preview screening.

1970s, rural England. Richard and Juliette’s seemingly idyllic family life is thrown into turmoil when their son Ewan starts acting out of character, creating an insurmountable wedge between the once happy couple.

At Starve Acre, their remote family home, archeologist Richard  (Matt Smith, Doctor Who, House Of The Dragon) buries himself in exploring a folkloric myth that the ancient oak tree on their land is imbued with phenomenal powers. While Juliette (Morfydd Clark, St, Maud, Lord Of The Rings: The Rings of Power) turns to the local community to find some kind of peace, Richard obsessively digs deeper.
