Director Valdimar Jóhannsson Composer Þórarinn Guðnason Cast Noomi Rapace, Ingvar Sigurdsson, Björn Hlynur Haraldsson, Hilmir Snær Guðnason
107' - 2021 - Mystery, Fantasy, Drama, Horror - Dialogue: Icelandic
A childless couple in rural Iceland make an alarming discovery one day in their sheep barn. They soon face the consequences of defying the will of nature, in this dark and atmospheric folktale, the striking debut feature from director Valdimar Jóhannsson.
"Two Icelandic sheep farmers seize on a startling discovery during lambing season in Valdimar Johannsson’s first feature. Lamb is a disturbing experience but also a highly original take on the anxieties of being a parent, a tale in which nature plus nurture yields a nightmare." - The Hollywood Reporter
