Middletown

Reverend Gabriel Hunter (Matthew Macfadyen) is shocked when he returns home to Middletown to find the townspeople involved in cockfighting, brawling, gambling and all manner of vice. Determined to save their souls, Gabriel comes down hard on the villagers, scolding them from the pulpit and demanding that they change their sinful ways. Not expecting the resentful rebellion he faces from his own brother Jim (Daniel Mays), Gabriel’s religious zeal grows ever more extreme in this dark and explosive thriller.
