A young man returns to his family farm, after a long stay in conversion therapy, and is torn between the expectations of his emotionally distant father and the memories of a past, loving gay relationship he has tried to bury.
James Grant and his parents, Richard and his wife, own and farm the Fair Haven Orchard in a small town in Vermont.
When James comes home from this therapy, he faces the hard reality that his father has seen fit to spend all of the money put by for him to attend Berklee Music School in Boston, Massachusetts.
Unhappily for the "success" of James's conversion to heterosexuality, his delivery route brings him regularly back in contact with his "old flame," Charlie Green.
The budding romance with Suzy comes to a grinding halt when James discovers that Charlie was cruelly gay bashed.
The conversion of local orchards into producers of organic apples and the generous offer of a buyer help Richard make up his mind to sell the farm.
Fair Haven premiered domestically at the Human Rights Campaign headquarters in Washington, D.C. in April 2016 before completing an extensive international festival run.
Fair Haven was called a "bold new film" by The Huffington Post and "stirring, well acted, and tenderly wrought" by the Los Angeles Times.
