A successful, cosmopolitan gay man, Tom travels to the Greek countryside to attend his lover’s funeral. Shattered by his loss, he meets the deceased’s family for the first time: the mother, who has no idea who Tom is and what he meant to her son, and the brother, whose main concern is to hide the truth at any cost. The talented, much-discussed director, Sarantos Georgios Zervoulakos, brings Michel Marc’s Bouchard’s acclaimed “Tom à la ferme” (2011) to Greece for the first time, in an adaptation inspired by (among other things) the realities of contemporary Greece, and in a translation by Amalia Kontogiani.
