Details: |
Joanna follows the brilliant scheming of a lonely nine-year-old girl (played by Vancouver actress Dalila Bela) who takes her ex-VCR-repairman father’s advice quite literally when he instructs her to just “go make a friend.” Using his discarded repair parts, she builds a robot that might share her somewhat antisocial propensity for H.P. Lovecraft novels. Official selections in the 2011 Whistler Film Festival, 2012 Yorkton Film Festival. Winner of the Audience Choice at 2012 Victoria International Film Festival & TIFF for kids 2012. Chosen & screened at the 65th (2012) Cannes Film Festival in France. |
