It's the second film by Icelandic writer-director Grimur Hakonarson and the plot follows feuding farmers who are forced to work together when a disease threatens their flocks, Variety reports.

"Rams" will debut at the Toronto Film Festival with a release planned for February.

It's written and directed by Hakonarson, and stars actors Sigurdur Sigurjonsson and Theodor Juliusson.
