MAPLE FLAVOUR FILMS

In April 2006, the creators of the award-winning Canadian feature film “SIDEKICK” crossed Canada with the one and only print of their film, screening it for Canadians from Halifax to Vancouver. Besides chronicling the ups-and-downs of their coast-to-coast adventure, they also took to the streets to talk to everyday Canadians and film industry professionals about the current state of the Canadian English-language film industry.
