About Starve Acre
In 1970s Yorkshire, Richard and Juliette relocate to Richard’s childhood home of Starve Acre, hoping the idyllic country surroundings will benefit their young son. However, a sudden and tragic event drives a wedge through the family, which triggers Richard, an academic archaeologist, to bury himself in obsessively exploring a local folkloric myth.
Daniel Kokotajlo’s follow up to his award-winning debut Apostasy is a wildly eerie, slow-burn folk horror, featuring unflinching performances by Matt Smith and Morfydd Clark.
