The organizers of film festival "Spektrs" are offering an exclusive chance (five screenings only!) to see the film "Tom at the Farm" by the promising director Xavier Dolan!
The young Canadian director Xavier Dolan has been called both a wonder child and a terror child (enfant terrible) frequently enough – regardless of which of those is more true, the word "child" definitely applies because Dolan is only 25 years old, which is practically nothing for a director. Nevertheless, Dolan’s films could never be called childish. The psychological thriller with an American taste "Tom at the Farm" promises intrigues, tension, and provocations.

There, he's shocked to find out no one knows who he is, nor who he was to the deceased, whose brother soon sets the rules of a twisted game.
