The taut, unnverving drama follows a young advertising copywriter who travels to a remote dairy farm in rural Quebec for his deceased lover’s funeral. Upon arriving at the farm, Tom is immediately ensnared in a world of mind games and buried secrets.
Tom at the Farm is the fourth production from 25-year-old Canadian director Dolan, who also stars in the film. It has been adapted from Michel Marc Bouchard’s play of the same name and features cinematography from Andre Turpin.
Throughout the season of Tom at the Farm, ACMI will also present Dolan’s first three feature films from Monday September 29 to Saturday October 5. Devotees will be able to watch all four films in chronological order on Saturday October 5 in a special Dolan marathon.
