The official trailer and poster have just been released for Amongst The Wolves, the new film from Irish director Mark O'Connor. The film is set to open in Irish cinemas on Friday May 2nd.
Irish director Mark O’Connor, best known for Cardboard Gangsters and King of the Travellers, will bring his newest project Amongst The Wolves to Irish cinemas in May, a look into the intense, gritty underworld of organised crime.
The Irish crime thriller stars Golden Globe® nominee Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones, Kin, Love/Hate), Luke McQuillan (Darklands, Game of Thrones), Jade Jordan (Twig), Louise Bourke (Let The Wrong One In), Helen Behan (This is England) and newcomer Daniel Fee.
Co-written by O’Connor and McQuillan, the film follows a homeless former soldier who, haunted by PTSD, forms an unlikely bond with a troubled teenager, while he navigates the dangers of life on the streets.
Produced by Bread and Circus Productions and Stalker Films, Amongst The Wolves will have its UK premiere this weekend at the Manchester Film Festival—where O’Connor’s Cardboard Gangsters previously premiered and won Best Feature Film amongst other awards.
Speaking about the cinema release in May, director Mark O’Connor said: “We made this film independently and it wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible cast and crew. It’s very exciting that we are now opening in cinemas and are looking forward to our U.K. premiere at the brilliant Manchester Film Festival this Sunday.”
Amongst The Wolves opens in Irish cinemas on Friday May 2nd.
