We're heading to the East Coast of Canada to discuss class, isolation and abortion. The recently released on VOD film is anchored by an amazing performance by Kelly Van der Burg as a small town Newfoundland teen who falls in love with a much older man, Joel Thomas Hynes' Danny Sharpe.

Topics include: how appreciative we are that Oates doesn't attempt to rescue Danny, region differences and universal storytelling in Canadian cinema and two very different reads of the film's abortion scene.
