Synopsis:
PIERCE BROSNAN and LIAM NEESON star in SERAPHIM FALLS – an action thriller set against the backdrop of the American Civil War.
The Civil War has ended but Colonel Morsman Carver (Neeson) is on one final mission: to kill Gideon (Brosnan) no matter what it takes.
Launched by a gunshot and propelled by rage, the relentless pursuit will take them both far from the comforts and codes of civilization and into the unforgiving wilderness. The emotional conclusion to this odyssey comes after a bloody climax in which both men are forced to confront their past and travel deep within the recesses of their souls.
SERAPHIM FALLS - a taut action film, an epic chase and primal battle set in the breathtaking landscape of the West.
