Reception
Rob Nelson of Variety wrote that the film "benefits immeasurably from Andrew Genaille’s peppy writing and the nimble direction of Sara McIntyre, who keeps the comedic drama visually compelling despite its being set mostly in a single room."[3]
Glen Schaefer of The Province gave the film a grade of "C" and wrote that the film "plays more like a series of interconnected essays than as on-screen drama."[4] Sara McIntyre of The Globe and Mail rated the film 2 stars out of 4 and wrote that it "feels a little forced, a little too preachy, and there are some real eye-rolling moments".[2]
