A man in his sixties (Daniel Day-Lewis) with grey hair and a trimmed grey beard and moustache stares up into the sky. A similarly aged man (Sean Bean) stands just to his left looking at him. They are standing in a wood with the wall of a small cabin to the left of the image.

About Anemone

Marking the highly anticipated return to the screen of Daniel Day-Lewis, Anemone is a vivid exploration of family ties directed by his son Ronan.

Estranged brothers reunite in a remote cabin. Forced to confront their painful upbringing, they try to process their separate journeys as a result of generational and lived trauma. Featuring tremendous performances from Day-Lewis – who also co-wrote the screenplay – Sean Bean, Samantha Morton and newcomer Samuel Bottomley, Ronan Day-Lewis’ impressive directorial debut skilfully surveys the bonds between fathers, sons and brothers.
