The idea of actually opening yourself up to another human being....can be terrifying....

On this episode we get ourselves into the head space of a movie that is in limited theatres now across the country.  It's time to embrace that 'Sometimes I Think About Dying'.

Lost on the dreary Oregon coast, Fran (Daisy Ridley) finds solace in her cubicle, listening to the constant hum of officemates and occasionally daydreaming to pass the time. She is ghosting through life, unable to pop her bubble of isolation, when a friendly new coworker, Robert (Dave Merheje), persistently tries to connect with her. Though it goes against every fiber of her being, she may have to give this guy a chance.

With it's unique and genuine tone, 'Sometimes I Think About Dying' is a hard movie to forget about.  We had the unique pleasure talking with it's writer/director Rachel Lambert and co-star Dave Merheje about the film and so very much more....

Sometimes you just need to let moments sit....

On this very special episode we dive head first into a new and incredibly thoughtful piece of Canadiana which is in theatres now at various Cineplex locations and having a one night only screening on Nov 6th at select Landmark cinema locations.  It's time for Verona.

Verona is the story of a young girl struggling to find her way in the world and even in her own family when she is confronted with the death of her grandfather.

A unique tale about coming of age and making peace with various traumas and events in your life, Verona is a fascinating slice of Canadiana and we had the unique pleasure of sitting down with director Sebastian Back to talk about the origins of it all and so very much more....
