Heather Graham stars as Cami, a successful children’s book author and (over-)doting mother to an introverted teenage girl. When her former husband dies, she is forced to face her long unresolved feelings about her marriage and, more urgently, her ex-spouse’s new wife and young daughter. In her feature film debut, director Aisling Chin-Yee guides her gifted cast through an intimate and often comically volatile exploration of grief, marriage, divorce and motherhood. The film’s modest scale allows for emotions to play as large as necessary, and for delightful moments of humor to thread between the dramatic peaks. At its core it’s the story of an unlikely bonding of four women who, despite the cheerless genesis of their relationship, somehow end up taking care of each other in a pragmatic fashion — the way that women do.

Director Aisling Chin-Yee, producer Lindsay Tapscott, and actor Abigail Pniowsky are expected to be in attendance on January 4 and 5.
