A Field in England [Ben Wheatley Season]

England during the Civil War and a small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O'Neil and Cutler. O'Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field. Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.

“Strange, captivating, metaphoric, and utterly obtuse.” The Film Stage

Triskel Arts Centre is delighted that he will be in attendance to present his latest film BULK, while we take this opportunity to also screen his earlier films KILL LIST, A FIELD IN ENGLAND and HIGH-RISE.
