MUBI has officially announced that Harvest, the latest feature film by acclaimed director Athina Rachel Tsangari, will arrive in UK and Irish cinemas on April 18, 2025. Based on Jim Crace’s Booker Prize-shortlisted novel, the film promises a visually stunning and immersive period drama about transformation, power, and survival.
A Haunting Tale of Change and Displacement
Set over seven hallucinatory days, Harvest follows an unnamed village in an undefined time and place as it faces an unexpected invasion from the outside world. Townsman-turned-farmer Walter Thirsk (Caleb Landry-Jones) and childhood friend Charles Kent (Harry Melling) find their rural community disrupted by outsiders, including a mapmaker, a company man, and a group of migrants.
As tensions rise, the arrival of modernity threatens the village’s traditional way of life, forcing the characters to navigate the chaotic transition from old to new.
A Visionary Director and Stellar Cast
Directed by Athina Rachel Tsangari (Chevalier, Attenberg), Harvest boasts a powerful ensemble cast led by Caleb Landry-Jones (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, DogMan) and Harry Melling (Wolf Hall, The Queen’s Gambit).
They are joined by Rosy McEwan, Arinzé Kene, Thalissa Teixeira, and Frank Dillane, each delivering compelling performances that bring depth and authenticity to this spellbinding tale.
Produced by Rebecca O’Brien, best known for her work with Ken Loach (I, Daniel Blake, The Old Oak), the film features stunning cinematography by Sean Price Williams, whose richly textured visual style enhances the film’s immersive atmosphere.
