From the creative mind of Xavier Dolan (Mommy, Heartbeats) comes the psychological thriller Tom at the Farm.  After the sudden death of his lover, Guillaume (Caleb Landry Jones of Heaven Knows What), Tom (Dolan), travels from his home in the city to a remote country farm for the funeral.  Upon arriving, he’s shocked to find that Guillaume’s family knows nothing about him and was expecting a woman in his place. Torn between his own grief and that of the family, Tom keeps his identity a secret but soon finds himself increasingly drawn into a twisted, sexually-charged game by Guillaume’s aggressive brother (Pierre-Yves Cardinal of Through the Mist), who suspects the truth.  Stockholm syndrome, deception, grief, and savagery pervade this stirring tale from Dolan.

Definitely this a film full of secrets, abusive relationships, homophobia and dead that involve each character. Sometimes confrontation is not the best solution and limits of certain love could be dangerous in the sense of timing revitalizes otherwise familiar moments. During 102 minutes you will experiment the best of the talent from Quebec, Canada.
