Rams


Sheep-farming brothers Colin (Sam Neill) and
Les (Michael Caton) have been estranged
from each other for decades. Their feud
intensifies after Les’s prize ram is found to
have a rare and deadly illness and authorities
consequently order that both men’s flocks
are purged.

FIVE FACTS:

    2015 Icelandic drama film Rams directed by

    described the original as “an incredibly
    beautiful film and it’s undeniably

    a snowy and blizzard-struck Iceland to a
    drought and bushfire-affected Australia.

  4. The new film was shot wholly on location
    in the small Western Australian farming town
    of Mount Barker.
