Never, ever steal a man’s favourite hammer. That is the moral of PATRICK, a mixture of deadpan hilarity and plaintive family drama that marks an eye-catching feature debut from Peaky Blinders / The Terror director Tim Mielants . Patrick (Kevin Janssens) is the handyman at a naturist campsite. Socially awkward and unprepossessing, he channels his passion into making meticulously hand-finished furniture. The sudden death of his father doesn’t hit him as hard as the disappearance of his trusty hammer. Who took his tool, and why, becomes an obsession. He must discover the naked truth….

Also starring Jermaine Clement (What We Do In The Shadows) alongside a stellar Flemish cast including Pierre Bokma (De Prooi ), Katelijne Damen (Girl), Hannah Hoekstra (The Fury) and Ariane Van Vliet (Many Heavens).
