Rams
Rams is a tragicomedy about two brothers in their sixties who live side by side on sheep farms in a secluded valley. When a lethal disease is detected in one of their stock, all the sheep in the valley need to be put down. The brothers, who haven’t spoken in forty years, are now forced to communicate.
