Director/Writer Luke Villemaire made GOLIATH seven years ago and the Film finally is ready to be seen, with an on-demand and digital release coming February 20, 2023. The Film centers on a young woman named Robin Walker (Jessica Sipos) who returns home to confront her family after the passing of her father. The reunion is tense as the family have several unresolved issues amongst themselves, yet Robin is coping with her own demons at once.
The gorgeous feature debut from Villemaire, features some compelling performances from its Ensemble led by Sipos, supported by Michelle Mylett, Jon Cor, Shannon Kook, Daniel Maslany, with Krista Bridges and Andrea Roth. The Drama touches upon themes of mental illness, grief and reconciliation.
We were so lucky to attend a special private screening of the Film with Producer Sheetal Maya Nanda and Villemaire, presented by Soho House. The Film was followed by a Q&A with Jeffrey Round. Some highlights from the evening:
Definitely worth a watch and a very accomplished, mature first film from a promising Toronto-based talent.
