Award winning Irish thriller CALM WITH HORSES drops today on Netflix in Ireland, starring Barry Keoghan, Niamh Algar and Cosmo Jarvis. The movie was filmed on location in Clare and Galway and makes the perfect bank holiday viewing.
CALM WITH HORSES, a drama set in rural Ireland, is the directorial feature debut of Nick Rowland, whose previous work includes Slap, a Bafta-nominated short film, and television episodes of the BBC prime time drama Hard Sun and Amazon's Ripper Street.
Cast includes Cosmo Jarvis (Lady Macbeth, Annihilation) as Arm, Barry Keoghan (Dunkirk, The Killing of a Sacred Deer) as his business partner Dympna Devers, and Niamh Algar (The Drummer and the Keeper, The Virtues) as Arm's ex-partner. Additional cast include Ned Dennehy (Mandy, Peaky Blinders), David Wilmot (Anna Karenina, Calvary), and Simone Kirby (Notes on Blindness, Jimmy's Hall).
Douglas 'Arm' Armstrong has become the feared enforcer for the drug-dealing Devers family, whilst also trying to be a good father. Torn between these two families, Arm's loyalties are tested when he is asked to kill for the first time.
The film is produced by Film4 along with Michael Fassbender's company DMC films.
