A witty and heartfelt look at family life

when it doesn’t work out quite as you imagined!

​One birthday. Two unexpected guests. A lifetime of buried tensions.

As Carol gathers her fractured family to celebrate her son Andy’s 21st birthday,

old wounds resurface and carefully kept secrets begin to unravel.

​Darkly funny, tender and unflinchingly honest, Rory Kinnear’s The Herd is a powerful portrait of love,

sacrifice and the ties that hold a family together – even when everything is falling apart.
