Screening on Film

Atom Egoyan’s early film of familial estrangements, technology breathed everywhere, and people most alive when captured on videotape. The fractured family consists of Stan and Sandra, who is his live-in mistress and video bondage partner, and Stan’s resentful seventeen-year-old son, Van. The boy decides to free his beloved grandmother from an old age home and establish a new, blissfully free idea of "family." "Brilliantly original" – San Francisco Chronicle.
