Overview

Yorkshire, 1974. Fear, mistrust and institutionalised police corruption are running riot.

When young Clare Kemplay goes missing, Eddie and his colleague, Barry, persuade their editor to let them investigate links with two similar abductions that draw them into a deadly world of secrecy, intimidation, shocking revelations and police brutality.

Viewing Notes

Picked up the Red Riding trilogy but sadly only viewed the first film despite knowing they should be watched together. But I still really liked this film a lot. Andrew Garfield is terrific. I’ll get to the others someday.
