Little Tony

In his fourth feature, Alex van Warmerdam adapts his own stage play, delivering a delightful exercise on the saucy details of a love triangle on a farm in the Dutch countryside.

Brand is your run-of-the-mill farmer, who lives a quiet rural existence with his wife Keet. Only problem is, he can’t read or write, so curvaceous teacher Lena shows up on their isolated estate to give him a few lessons.

Her arrival will disturb their routine once and for all, as Brand and Lena are quickly enveloped in a budding romance that his wife Keet inexplicably endorses. But she has an agenda of her own. Brand is soon trapped between the two women and when Lena gives birth to Little Tony, a relentless battle for survival breaks out in their once peaceful home. K.Th.
