Discover Ontario: Explore the province with fascinating docs and special guests. In this screening, visit Niagara Falls.
This Genie Award-nominated classic offers a slyly subversive tour through Niagara Falls. It is soon revealed that the "Canadian capital of kitsch" has many eccentricities and contradictions beneath its tourist-centric exterior: a member of a family of daredevils recounts the number of people who have perished over the falls, including his own brother, and a resident of the notoriously polluted Love Canal tells of the twisted trees lining her street and the birth defects suffered by her daughter. Acclaimed filmmaker Kevin McMahon delights and reveals hidden secrets in this playful portrait of his hometown.
Director Kevin McMahon will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A.
