THE INCOMER is written and directed by Louis Paxton and produced by Shirley O’Connor and Emily Gotto of Pilea Pictures alongside an outstanding creative team. The film is supported by UK and international partners and represents a true collaborative effort from its producers and production companies, including BFI, Screen Scotland, Little Walnut, Day Zero, Head Gear Films, Metrol Technology and Inevitable Pictures, and includes Executive Producers Mia Bays, Steven Little, Kieran Hannigan, Trevor Noah, Sanaz Yamin, Moby, Lindsay Hicks, Phil Hunt, Compton Ross and Katie Holly.
Keeper loved working alongside this team as the post production partner, with all post taking place in Ireland. A great opportunity to work with local post houses including Outer Limits and Gabha.
The film stars Domhnall Gleeson (ABOUT TIME), Gayle Rankin (GLOW), Grant O’Rourke (IN PLAIN SIGHT), bringing life to a richly imagined story set on a rugged Scottish island.
Set on a remote Scottish island, THE INCOMER follows two siblings who survive by hunting seabirds, retelling the stories of their ancestors, and defending the isle from dreaded ‘Incomers’. Their world is upended with the arrival of an awkward council worker who has come to uproot them from their homeland.
Keeper Pictures looks forward to celebrating THE INCOMER on this prestigious international stage.
