Gavin Drea

A hopeless romantic and the woman he loves go on the run when she's accused of a shocking crime.

WHAT RICHARD DID follows Richard Karlsen (a stunning breakthrough performance by Jack Reynor), golden-boy athlete and undisputed alpha-male of his privileged set of South Dublin teenagers, through the summer between the end of school and the beginning of university. Richard’s world is bright and everything seems possible, until one summer night when love, pride and jealousy cause Richard to commit an act that will shatter the lives of those closest to him… Featuring extraordinary performances from its mainly young cast, WHAT RICHARD DID is a quietly devastating, award-winning (Best Original Screenplay - Evening Standard Film Awards 2013) study of honesty, morality and responsibility from the immensely talented Lenny Abrahamson (Frank, Adam & Paul).

A troubled man begins to spiral, consumed by the fatal car crashes caused by the sharp corner in front of his house. As his sick obsession takes hold, he places his wife and son in jeopardy, threatening to permanently break the family apart.
