We've made it to the finish! What a Festival this was! We're still reeling literally from all the excitement, and have really been doing as much as we can before the curtain drops Sunday.

The Team and I have shared our thoughts on everything we saw at the Festival here and there are a few more Reviews coming.
By the way, we will soon be drawing our ...

#TIFF22: “THE WONDER”
By Nicholas Porteous
Florence Pugh, as a solemn English nurse, visits a hyper-religious Irish village to watch over a child who claims to have survived four months without food--worshipped as a miracle. Pugh's rational approach clashes with the deep-seated beliefs of the community, and the life of the child hangs in the balance.
