Arsinee Khanjian, a regular in Atom Egoyan's films, plays Olivia, a 38-year-old woman in an imperfect marriage who discovers she's pregnant. Dan Lett is her husband, Michael, a man who know his marriage is in trouble, but not how to fix it. [...] The film is artfully directed by producer Patrick Sisam, who co-wrote the script with Rick Vellu.
