The Farm is a dark comedy set in an idyllic retreat in Brazil. Calvin and Hanna are an English couple who come to the Farm expecting rest and relaxation, in the hopes that this will get them through a rocky patch in their relationship. When they meet Bernardo, the eccentric guru of the Farm, they learn that the 'resort' is actually an experimental psychotherapy centre. To protect his girlfriend and his sanity from the meddling guru, Calvin will have to dive head-first into the hippy free-for-all.
