About the film

In the late 1990s, a Canadian-Hungarian family moves into a new home on Vancouver Island. However, their new beginning is disrupted by the increasingly dangerous behavior of Jeremy, the family’s oldest child. In this film by Hungarian-Canadian director Sophy Romvari, which won an award at Locarno, the family dynamics and internal relationships are revealed from the perspective of the youngest child, Sasha.
