God's Own Country

This simmering drama is a New York Times Critics' Pick and an award-winner at Sundance and Berlinale. Johnny Saxby (Josh O'Connor) works long hours in brutal isolation on his family's farm in the north of England. He numbs the daily frustration of his lonely existence with nightly binge-drinking at the local pub and casual sex. When a handsome Romanian migrant worker (Alec Secareanu) arrives Johnny is confronted with new emotions. An intense relationship forms between the two which could change Johnny's life forever.

Nominated by BAFTA for Outstanding British Film of the Year.

" (4 out of 4 stars)! A love story that is unabashedly raw, sexy and heartfelt. It's a universal tale about giving yourself over to love, even when you seem hopelessly broken." - San Francisco Chronicle

"O'Connor and Secareanu give such aching performances that their romance feels real. As the story arcs toward its touching denouement, it's those quiet moments -- imbued with the windswept soul of the landscape -- that harbor the most lyrical beauty." - Boston Globe
