    Rams is an Icelandic black comedy about two feuding brothers (any similarity to real-life squabbling siblings is purely coincidental) who must learn to put aside their differences to rescue their flock when a virus breaks out at their sheep farm.

    The film is based on a story director Grimur Hakonarson was told by his father about a pair of brothers who didn't talk to each other for 40 years after falling out over a woman.

    Rams was screened at the Un Certain Regards section of the Cannes Film Festival in 2015 and was also featured in the Contemporary World Cinema section of the Toronto International Film Festival the same year.
