Faith and farming
As sheep farmer Jeremy struggles to protect his flock from a foot and mouth outbreak, God comes to him in a Moses-like moment and promises to protect the sheep if he is obeyed. It’s a relatively dry subject that transformed here into a journey into the psyche of a man forced into a crumbling industry that’s topical, imaginative and strangely beautiful. (Nicola Husband)
