Based on a true story, The Seed deals with the 30 year reunion of Danny, a Vietnam veteran, his father Brian, an ex-IRA soldier and Danny’s journalist daughter Rose.
What starts out as a celebration soon becomes a chilling game of loyalty, lies and betrayal as each digs deep into the Maloney family plot. Seeds germinate, flower and sometimes strangle in this exposé of family history in a Nottingham where merry men are thin on the ground and Robin Hood checked out a long time ago. And to make matters worse… the rest of the kinsmen are on their way.
Award-winning writer Kate Mulvany (Blood and Bone, Story Time, Naked Ambition, Somewhere…) teams with director Iain Sinclair (My Arm, Hurlyburly, Lord of the Flies) in this compelling, tightly-woven and thrilling exploration of a very real family and the repercussions of war.
