God's Creatures

In a small remote Irish fishing village, Aileen (Emily Watson) works as a shift manager at the local seafood processing plant alongside Mary (Marion O'Dwyer), whose son Mark recently drowned at sea, and Sarah (Aisling Franciosi), a young woman experiencing marital troubles with her husband Francie (Brendan McCormack). Aileen's estranged son Brian (Paul Mescal) unexpectedly returns after a lengthy and unexplained move to Australia. While initially caught off-guard, Aileen is delighted to reunite her family together alongside her husband Con (Declan Conlon), daughter Erin (Toni O'Rourke), and elderly father-in-law Paddy (Lalor Roddy).
