Watch The Moving Trailer For ‘The Levelling’!

Briefly: Yeah, you’ll definitely recognize this film’s star from her lengthy run as Meera Reed on HBO’s Game of Thrones, but Ellie Kendrick or not, Hope Dickson Leach’s The Levelling looks like an incredibly moving piece of art.

In the film, set in Somerset, England. Trainee veterinarian Clover Catto returns to the farm where she grew up after hearing news that her brother Harry has died—an apparent suicide. Finding the family home in ruins following recent floods that devastated the area, Clover is forced to confront her difficult father Aubrey – about the farm, the livestock and, crucially, the details surrounding Harry’s death. As the funeral approaches Clover’s discoveries send her on an emotional journey of reckoning – with the land, her family and herself.

The emotion and brevity in The Levelling‘s trailer is palpable, and I really can’t wait to see more from this one.
