SCREENING GUIDE

RAMS Neon

Rams sees acting treasures Sam Neill and Michael Caton butting heads. The pair play rival sheep farming brothers who both farm sheep descended from their late father’s prize stock. But when some sheep fall sick with an ovine disease they’re forced to cull their flock. With the precious sheep bloodline at stake, the bitter brothers have to set aside their differences and work together or risk losing everything. With these two veterans leading the way, Rams has obviously been praised for its acting. But the understated dramedy has knocked over critics with its weathered charm.
