Description
Synopsis:
For generations, the Gardell family have devoted themselves to a life working the land. An unexpected change in the legal conditions of the land they farm gives Tomàs and Maria no choice but to turn their farm into a bed and breakfast, where they patiently wait for guests to arrive.
Can Gardell is a fictional story with real characters; a portrait of a form of rural life that no longer seems to fit our modern times.
