Exploring concepts of fate and free will,
Jerry Ciccoritti's contemplative drama shows the lives of a handful of random people during the 12 hours leading up to a bloody shooting spree in a posh coffee shop. Maggie (
Emily Hampshire) is a waitress in the café whose acting career is going nowhere fast. Her co-worker Connie (
Sarah Polley), who is learning to love her lawyer boyfriend, is supposed to have the day off. Sheena (
Catherine O'Hara), who frequents the shop, is a lovelorn bridal consultant looking for a decent man. And Brian (
Stephen Rea), an exterminator/philosopher, is still mourning the death of his daughter, who died a year ago. Their petty, everyday problems gain ironic resonance when juxtaposed with the day's bloody ending. This film was screened at the 1999
Toronto Film Festival.
