Event information

Adapted for the screen from Bea Roberts’ multi-award-winning stage play, this warm, gentle film tells the 12 year story of an unlikely friendship between a Devon farmer and the vet who is assigned to cull his precious herd in the foot and mouth crisis. Brilliantly examining the little-mined tragedy of the foot and mouth crisis, Nigel Hastings and David Fielder reprise their hugely successful on-stage roles as Jeff and Michael, with the play's director Paul Robinson making his directorial debut in film. Robinson commented - “Bea Roberts award-winning And Then Come the Nightjars is a rare find. It’s a story that’s as moving as it is funny, nostalgic as it is incisive, personal as it is political”.
