The new trailer for Irish coming-of-age drama Here Are the Young Men - an adaptation of Rob Doyle's acclaimed novel of the same name - has been released ahead of the film's debut on digital platforms on 30 April.
Helmed by actor-turned-director Eoin Macken, with a script by Macken and writer Doyle, the film stars Dean-Charles Chapman (Game of Thrones, 1917), Finn Cole (Animal Kingdom, Peaky Blinders), Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen's Gambit, The Witch), Ferdia Walsh-Peelo (Sing Street, Vikings) and Travis Fimmel (Raised by Wolves, Vikings).
The synopsis says: "Dublin 2003. Aimless teenager Matthew (Chapman) and his disaffected friends leave school into a social vacuum of drink, drugs and thrill-seeking in one last summer of adolescence.
"Matthew romantically yearns after his free-spirited friend Jen (Taylor-Joy) and struggles to maintain his increasingly disturbing relationship with the magnetic but sadistic Kearney (Cole). Whilst their precocious friend Rez (Walsh-Peelo) has started to succumb to paranoia and depression.
"Matthew and the group are soon led by the deranged Kearney into a world of nihilistic violence, falling into shocking acts of transgression that will irrevocably change their lives."
Here Are the Young Men will also be released in Irish cinemas by Wildcard Distribution later this year.
