The Wind That Shakes the Barley
The Wind That Shakes the Barley is a 2006 Irish film set during the Irish War of Independence (1919–21) and the subsequent Irish Civil War of 1922–23. The title refers to a line from a song by 19th century author Robert Dwyer Joyce.
The film was shot in various towns within County Cork during 2005. In Bandon, a scene was shot along North Main Street and outside a building next to the Court House. It was from Lee’s Hotel in Bandon (now the Munster Arms) on August 22, 1922, that Michael Collins set off on the fateful journey which ended with his death at the hands of Anti-Treaty IRA (Irregulars) at Béal na mBláth, (the Pass of the Flowers) about 8 miles away.
It won the Palme d'Or at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival.
As with most of Loach's films, there has been less commercial interest in Britain than in other European countries, and only 30 prints of the film are in distribution compared with 300 in France.
The RESPECT political party, of which Ken Loach is on the national council for, has called for people to watch the film on the first weekend in order to persuade the film industry to show the film in more cinemas.
It hasn't picked up a distributor in the USA yet:
Distributors
* A-Film Distribution (2006) (Netherlands) (theatrical)
* Diaphana Films (2006) (France) (theatrical)
* Distribution Company (2006) (Argentina) (theatrical)
* Gateno Films (2006) (Peru) (all media)
