Richard (Paddy Considine) has always protected his simple-minded little brother Anthony (Toby Kebbell). When Richard leaves the rural village where they have grown up to join the army, Anthony is taken in by Sonny (Gary Stretch), a controlling and vicious local drug dealer and his gang. Anthony becomes the gang’s pet and plaything. Seven years later, Richard returns to settle the score. DEAD MAN’S SHOES is a genre-defying film blending horror, supernatural elements, comedy, and social realism. Set in a midlands village, where crime is unchecked and drugs, intimidation, and power games are accepted as part of daily life.
