Are We Done Now?

This event has passed

Down River director Ben Immanuel (formerly Ben Ratner) returns with his third feature, a wry, self-aware Covid comedy in which a socially distant Vancouver documentarian checks in with a stressed-out therapist (Corner Gas star Gabrielle Miller) and several of her patients over the course of the pandemic. Although the tone is predominantly comedic, this framework allows Immanuel to take the temperature of the times and dig into contemporary obsessions and concerns: race, gender, sexuality, and of course mental health. With it’s artful sketches of a sparsely populated Vancouver Are We Done Now? transports us back to a time of enforced introspection with a great degree of wit and sensitivity.
