Rialto Recommends
TOM AT THE FARM finds Xavier Dolan in taut, dangerous form. Stripping back the flamboyance for something darker and more controlled, he turns a remote farmhouse into a place of threat, repression and strange attraction. With echoes of Hitchcock and Polanski, this is a stylish, unnerving thriller where grief becomes performance and silence turns violent.
