Someone who observes you, who knows your habits and your small frustrations, your moments of boredom and those rare moments of happiness. Someone who comes out into the open one day with a letter proposing a change in your life. And if you are a forty-one-year-old pharmacist, married, with two adolescent children, and you lead the ordinary life that everybody expects of you, you might consider accepting an invitation that could be the most exciting thing that has happened to you in years. And this is what Nicole does.

Declaration
film director
“Shooting in Richmond Hill – a suburb north of Toronto – I was struck by the profundity of the suburb as metaphor for a superstructure, into which we try and make our lives fit. These places are crafted to protect us from the city, and from each other. There is a prescribed lifestyle inherent in the structure of a suburb that is meant to anticipate our every need, to alleviate anxieties prompted by uncertainty, and surround us so completely, that we need a map to find our way out. A map to a different life.”
