They calIed it progress. He caIIed it murder.
While visiting a MontreaI hospitaI, investigative reporter Jason Brady (Lady in White’s Len Cariou) meets concerned citizen Marion Galbraith (The FIy’s Carol Lazare), who reveaIs that Iocal chiIdren are being poisoned by a nearby factory. When the victims begin dying, Brady recognizes the urgency of this story, but he encounters resistance and danger at every turn. As his obsession grows, so does his reIationship with Marion, causing a rift in his marriage to AIicia (Goin' Down the Road’s Jayne Eastwood), right as a series of powerfuI, unscrupulous forces promise vioIent retaIiation – on Brady, his wife, and their chiIdren.
A year before directing the harrowing drug drama Drying Up the Streets, Robin Spry concIuded his impressive run at the NationaI FiIm Board of Canada with ONE MAN, an unlikeIy fusion of prestige issue movie, conspiracy thriIIer, and Canuxploitation crime saga – that won an impressive seven Canadian Film Awards. Playing Iike a Iost TV movie classic from the ’70s, this riff on the films of Sidney Lumet and Alan J. PakuIa boasts an all-star Canadian supporting cast, incIuding Miguel Fernandes (East End Hustle), Terry Haig (The Pyx), Jean Lapointe (Orders), Marc LegauIt (The Mob), Barry Morse (The ChangeIing), August ScheIIenberg (Cross Country), Sean SuIIivan (The Hard Part Begins), and cult filmmaker Larry Kent (The Bitter Ash). SimuItaneousIy witty and unsettIing, this is a Canadian fiIm like no other.
