Trailer

Get a first look at a film screening at the fall festivals. The Match Factory has revealed the teaser for a film titled Harvest, one of the world premieres at the 2024 Venice Film Festival in the Main Competition. The festival kicks off this week, and this sprawling period piece will premiere September 3rd. It’s also playing at NYFF and other festivals after that. Harvest takes place in a remote village in medieval England. Adapted from the novel by British writer Jim Crace, this stars Caleb Landry Jones as Walter Thirsk, the former childhood friend / manservant of the village’s weak-willed landowner, Master Kent. Marked by superstition and the scapegoating of outsiders, the town falls under new threat after Kent’s iron-fisted city cousin comes into possession of the land, with new plans for agricultural profit. NYFF: “Shot in the sun-dappled Scottish countryside with natural light by cinematographer Sean Price Williams, Tsangari’s most ambitious work to date is both carnal & cerebral… [A] reflection on man’s relationship to the land, rich in atmospherics and thematic resonance.” This also stars Harry Melling, Rosy McEwen, Arinzé Kene, Thalissa Teixeira, Frank Dillane. Yep it definitely has some strong cinematography, but as for the rest it’s still hard to tell.

Director’s Statement

“With this film, an adaptation of Jim Crace’s novel Harvest, we had the chance to examine the moment when it all began for us—twentyfirst-century heirs to a universal story of land loss. To me, Harvest is a film about reckoning. What have we done? Where do we go from here? How can we salvage our soil, the self within the commons? Harvest takes place in a threshold realm, tracing the first ruptures of the industrial “revolution”. And revolution it hasn’t been. An agrarian community is disrupted by three breeds of outsiders: the map-maker, the people on the move, and the company man—all archetypes of shattering change. The future is not part of the story—it will happen offscreen, in a world we are not meant to see. There are no heroes. Only imperfect, ordinary folks. I imagined it as a daguerreotype, or its modern equivalent, a Polaroid being slowly exposed to twilight.” –Director Athina Rachel Tsangari
