Trailer & Poster To Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast
Focus Features has released the official trailer, poster, and photos to Belfast, written and directed by Academy Award nominee Kenneth Branagh and opening in theaters on November 12, 2021.
The film stars Golden Globe nominee Caitriona Balfe, Academy Award winner Judi Dench, Jamie Dornan, Ciarán Hinds, and introduces the ten-year-old Jude Hill.
The film is the humorous, tender and intensely personal story of one boy’s childhood during the tumult of the late 1960s in the city of Branagh’s birth. Belfast is a movie straight from Branagh’s own experience.
A nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down. His stable and loving community and everything he thought he understood about life is changed forever but joy, laughter, music and the formative magic of the movies remain.
Dornan and Balfe play a passionate working-class couple caught up in the mayhem, with Dench and Hinds as the quick-witted grandparents.
The film is produced by Branagh, Laura Berwick, Becca Kovacik and Tamar Thomas.
Behind the camera are many regular Branagh collaborators, including production designer Jim Clay, director of photography Haris Zambarloukos, hair and make-up artist Wakana Yoshihara, editor Úna Ní Dhonghaíle, costume designer Charlotte Walker and casting directors Lucy Bevan and Emily Brockman.
The music is by Belfast-born legend Van Morrison.
