Another product of the Canadian Film Centre. It describes itself as "an urban love story about the soul of a mother, the heart of a fighter, and the faith of a child". It's a lovely description and it's a lovely little film as well.
This is the kind of film that will appeal to the art crowd a little more than the mainstream. It's subdued and retrained. It takes it's time, it doesn't waste scenes with endless dialogue. There's a very specific feel and look to this film. If I'm honest, from time to time it meandered just a tad too much for my liking, but my interest was never lost due to my intrigue and care in the characters. It's gorgeous to look at with great performances and a pretty great soundtrack. This is up on Netflix for those of interest. Give it a shot!
