is out now, previewing Patrick Ireland’s film about mermaids, migrants, and the far right.Ill Fares The Land is a fantasy drama that explores the “migrant crisis” and the rise of the far-right in a coastal English town. The film centers on the relationship between two brothers, one of whom finds a mermaid washed up on shore.
Ill Fares The Land stars Ruaridh Aldington, Eddie Chamberlain, Noah Silverstone, Boo Miller, Smilla, Thomas Devlin, and more. The film is written and directed by Patrick Ireland.A mix of fantasy and grounded drama, Ill Fares the Land explores the rise of far-right ideology through the prism of folklore.
According to director Patrick Ireland, the mermaid in the film is a metaphor of sorts for “asylum seekers currently making the perilous journey across the English channel to reach the shores of Britain, only to be met by hatred and violence from large swathes of the native population […] These people have become lost to fascism – and alienated from their own humanity.”
