Synopsis

In Toronto, creative writing professor Mara bumps into Matt, a free-spirited author from her past. Bonded by their shared interests, the two grow closer as Mara juggles marriage, motherhood and work. But when Matt joins her on a road trip, pressure slowly mounts against their undefined relationship.

Our take

Risking ellipses and question marks, Canadian director Kazik Radwanski traces the ambiguous forms that romance can take with Matt and Mara. Through the surprises and genuine laughs of improvisation, the talented leads articulate a rare, real attraction for which there are, ordinarily, only clichés.
