Synopsis

Over seven hallucinatory days, a village with no name, in an undefined time, disappears. Harvest is a neo-Western about townsman-turned-farmer Walter Thirsk (Landry-Jones) and benevolent lord of the manor Charles Kent (Melling), childhood friends about to face an invasion from the outside world: the trauma of modernity. 

The film is an adaptation of the Booker prize-nominated novel Harvest by Jim Crace, hailed as one of the best books of the 21st century by The Guardian.
