A film by Atom Egoyan

Back
Jim and his daughter Veronica, a young high school music teacher, attempt to unravel their complicated histories and intertwined secrets. After being implied in a misunderstanding, Jim’s daughter is falsely accused of abusing her position of authority over 17-year-old Clive. Veronica is nevertheless convinced she deserves to be punished, but for much earlier crimes. Confused and frustrated by Veronica’s intransigence, Jim’s anguish begins to affect his job as a food inspector. He wields great power over small family-owned restaurants; a power he doesn’t hesitate to use.
