British Film Festival: Single

Whitetail

- OFFICIAL SELECTION: Toronto International Film Festival -

Whitetail is a smouldering psychological thriller set in the lush, isolated forests of Southern Ireland.

The film centres on an extraordinary performance from Natasha O’Keeffe (Peaky Blinders) as Jen, a conservation park ranger. Tough as nails, Jen is a formidable presence in her community, especially when it comes to the poachers that have begun trespassing on her territory.

However, Jen’s hardy exterior begins to crack when a familiar face from her past reappears. Her ex-boyfriend Oscar (Aaron McCusker, Shameless) has returned to town, dredging up painful memories of a devastating accident that occurred during their teen years.

Along with the turmoil caused by the encroaching poachers, and new developments in her relationship with her father (Andrew Bennett, The Quiet Girl), Jen is forced to finally confront the trauma she has tried to outrun.

Masterfully scripted, shot, scored and performed, Whitetail is a simmering spectacle that will stay with you long after the credits have rolled.
