🎞️ Get ready for a special night on Saturday, October 4, as we celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the Parrsboro Film Festival.

The evening begins at 6:45 pm with Tara Thorne’s Lakeview, followed by a Q&A with Tara herself. At 9:05 pm, enjoy the screening of Jason Buxton’s Sharp Corner.

Lakeview (2024)
• Written and directed by Tara Thorne

When a queer friend group unites for a girls' weekend celebrating a divorce, their old feelings, new relationships, and shifting dynamics crash into each other in the shadow of summer's dying light.

• Stars: Lesley Smith, Nicole Steeves, Kathryn McCormack

"Lakeview is a celebration of the power (and damage) of familiarity, what happens when lessons learned don’t lead to patterns broken, and how one song can change everything you know."

Sharp Corner (2024)
• Written by Jason Buxton and Russell Wangersky
• Directed by Jason Buxton

A troubled man begins to spiral, consumed by the fatal car crashes caused by the sharp corner in front of his house. As his sick obsession takes hold, he places his wife and son in jeopardy, threatening to permanently break the family apart.

• Stars: Ben Foster, Cobie Smulders, William Kosovic

"Sharp Corner offers a gripping examination of obsession and moral overreach, set against the backdrop of a seemingly ordinary suburban life. With Buxton's sharp direction and a powerhouse performance by Foster, the film promises to be a thrilling and thought-provoking watch. It's a psychological ride that questions how far one should go to save others, and at what cost."

SHARP CORNER (2024)

Sharp Corner isn’t loud, it’s the kind of film that whispers its way into your bones. Quiet, devastating, and unsettlingly human. A slow-burn masterpiece that stays with you long after the credits roll. A cinematic gem.

What a night! 🎞️

The 2025 Screen Nova Scotia Awards reminded us why we love this industry — the stories, the risks, the moments that stay with us long after the credits roll.

Whether you were behind the camera, in front of it, or working tirelessly on the sidelines, you raised the bar and brought Nova Scotia’s film scene into sharp focus. 🏆
