God's Creatures (15)

In a windswept fishing village, a mother is torn between protecting her beloved son and her own sense of right and wrong.

A tense, sweepingly emotional epic from acclaimed studio A24, God’s Creatures is a drama set on the coast of Ireland. After her beloved son (Paul Mescal, Aftersun, Normal People) returns home to their close-knit fishing village following a long period abroad, a mother (Emily Watson, Breaking The Waves) struggles with her conscience after giving a false alibi to protect him. To her horror, the tensions begins to rip apart their family and close-knit community.
