Theatrical report

Snow cake is a quiet little Canadian drama about lumberjacking, snow, guilt, alternative mentalities, redemption and the amazing co-incidences that happen when you go to another country while having psychological difficulties that can be resolved when someone else is doomed to repeat your issues.

Good acting, but.
