Ken Loach brought home the Palme d’Or at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival for his masterpiece The Wind That Shakes The Barley. After the well-reviewed, but under-seen Looking For Eric in 2009, he is back with Route Irish. This war drama starring Mark Womack and Andrea Lowe premiered at Cannes last year to mixed reviews. It will finally get a March release in the UK. We have the first trailer below via Get The Big Picture.
Synopsis: The story of a private security contractor in Iraq who rejected the official explanation of his friend’s death and sets out to discover the truth.
Route Irish hits UK theaters March 18th, 2011.
