Overview

Four young adults try to form meaningful relationships in a barren world of dead end jobs and awkward conversations in Greg Hanec's acclaimed minimalist drama Downtime. The Woman (Maureen Gamelsetter) is at the center of a quartet of bewildered, though gently touching, low-income slackers and dreamers.

Jessebird:

An unpretentious, spare look at slow drifting Canadian urban ennui. A slacker film that anticipates Clerks and Linklater’s Suburbia. Boring in the best way.
