Birth name Thomas Dumerchez
Nationality France

Thomas Dumerchez est un acteur français. En 2004, il fait partie de la distribution du film Le Clan, du réalisateur Gaël Morel, qui l'avait découvert par hasard, marchant dans une rue.

Dans Le Clan, premier rôle au cinéma, il occupe l'un des trois rôles principaux et donne la réplique à Stéphane Rideau et Nicolas Cazalé. Dans ce portrait en triptyque de trois frères, Thomas Dumerchez est décrit par les critiques comme un acteur exceptionnel, à la fois naturel et photogénique, timide et charismatique.

En 2006, il joue dans le court métrage Quais de Seine, sous la direction de Gurinder Chadha, avec Cyril Descours, dans le cadre du film Paris, je t'aime.

En 2007, Gaël Morel lui confie un nouveau rôle-clé aux côtés de Catherine Deneuve, Élodie Bouchez et Guy Marchand dans Après lui, projeté lors du 60e festival de Cannes, dans le cadre de La Quinzaine des réalisateurs.

Maria Vial is a white French farmer who runs (with her ex-husband, Andre, and his sickly father) a failing coffee plantation in an unnamed African country in the present day. Maria and Andre have a lazy mentally unstable son, Manuel, while Andre has another half-African son Jose. Civil war has broken out and rebel soldiers, many of them child soldiers, are advancing on the area. The French military, while pulling out, makes one final plea for Maria to leave, but unyielding in her desire to protect her family's home and blinded by her own anti-white prejudice she ignores the warnings. Meanwhile, a rebel DJ on the radio urges the rebels on and advocates attacks on emblems of colonialism. Maria's workers fearing the conflict flee. Maria stubbornly refuses to abandon the plantation and its harvest which will be ready in five days. Risking her life and unable to find Andre she drives to a village to hire men to finish harvesting of the coffee. On the way, she is forced to pay off bandits who threaten to kill her at a roadblock they have established. After hiring the workers she stops at the elementary school and collects Andre's other son Jose. Jose is upbeat boy of about 12. He is black and we later learn that his mother is the much younger housekeeper for Andre's father.

Annecy is no tourist destination for three working-class brothers and their father, in the months after their mother has died. Marc (Nicolas Cazalé) is deeply troubled: he tries to stiff drug dealers and then plots revenge. Christophe (Stéphane Rideau) is released from jail, lands a job, and must overcome various temptations in order to keep it. Olivier (Thomas Dumerchez), nearing 18, may be falling in love with Hicham (Salim Kechiouche), a young man who constantly practices capoeira on the shores of the lake. Both violence and fraternity are close to the surface of most interactions. How each brother emerges from his challenge comprises the film's drama. The film discusses how these men can form a family.
