God's Own Country: Platonic Turns Biblical

22/8/2017

Picture
At the crack of dawn, a light switches on in an old stone farmhouse in the English countryside. A harsh wind blows while a soft light of early morning brings in a new day. There’s no rest for the wicked, growing up on a farm. Something that is epitomised in the young son of a farmer who lives a dreary, monotonous existence between his responsibilities and getting soused every evening until late night. For Johnny Saxby, there is little room for joy.

​
Director Francis Lee explores the restless heartache of Johnny Saxby in God's Own Country. The film is first and foremost a love story between two men, but it also doubles as a coming-of-age message of hope for lost souls that long for a deep connection that can save them from the loneliness of the harrowed land on which they live.
