The Independent Film Movement Series will be showing its next film on Tuesday, November 25. The series is on the 4th Tuesday of each month.
Synopsis: A man of few words, Gaby manages his family's farm - Buchard & Sons -
on his own, despite his advancing age. With no actual sons to speak of
and his two grown daughters living far away in the big city, he spends
his days tending to the animals and land that surround him, eschewing
modern technology and most social interactions. When his eldest
daughter, Marie, appears at the family homestead to share news that
she's finally getting divorced and in desperate need of money in order
to keep the home where she and her children live, Gaby's quiet life
begins to unravel. In an effort to tend to his children much the way he
steadfastly tends to his farm, he'll be forced to make sacrifices he
never intended for the sake of those closest to him.
Directed by Sébastien Pilote | Canada | 2013 | French with English Subtitles | 111 min
