About the series

Some bonds may break you.

What it’s about

Ruben crashes the wedding of his estranged stepbrother Niall and attacks him. The assault forces both men to revisit nearly forty years of a friendship that began in the 1980s and has since fractured.

What hooks you

Richard Gadd and Jamie Bell play the estranged pair, with Gadd also writing the series. Directed by Alexandra Brodski and Eshref Reybrouck, the six-episode drama unfolds across decades.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who likes character-driven drama built on long-buried tensions and the fallout of a violent act. Those drawn to stories of fractured brotherhood and the weight of the past will find much to hold their attention.
