Synopsis
Evil Lives Here…
Three films, one overwhelming experience. David Peace’s acclaimed novels become what The New Yorker calls “a mammoth, sensationally violent and beautiful five-hour movie.” Utilizing recurring characters and events, THE RED RIDING TRILOGY recounts three series of gruesome crimes over a turbulent decade in Northern England.
In the first film, 1974, a reporter (Andrew Garfield, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus) investigating a string of child murders comes up against a corrupt police force; in 1980, a highly regarded investigator (Paddy Considine, The Bourne Ultimatum) takes over the Yorkshire Ripper case but becomes compromised by past indiscretions; and in 1983, a weary lawyer (Mark Addy, Robin Hood) looks into the case of a missing girl – and makes a stunning discovery that connects all three mysteries. David Morrissey (The Other Boleyn Girl), Rebecca Hall (Vicky Cristina Barcelona) and Sean Bean (The Lord of the Rings) also star in this unforgettable masterpiece in which no one escapes undamaged.
