To The Moon is the latest feature from Halifax’s Kevin Hartford, and in it he sets his comedic charm on the question of finding ourselves and the mysterious ways we stumble upon doing it. Sam is a single parent who, faced with an impending empty nest, has to figure out who he is outside of being a dad, and whether or not that involves coming out of the closet after nearly four decades nestled safely within it. His daughter, Ella, is struggling to navigate the treacherous waters of teenagerhood at a new school while dealing with a father who needs more guidance than she does. Their curious new neighbour, Claire, has recently abandoned her corporate life to pursue a career as a writer, and her attempts to mine inspiration from the father-daughter team next door lead to some surprising revelations about her future from some wildly unexpected sources. And all three of these people are doing their best to prevent the moon from crashing into the earth.

A Q&A with director Kevin Hartford and the cast will follow the screening.
