Euphoria

Directed by Paula Kelly
Canada, 2013 (fiction, 92 minutes, colour, English)

Film Description:
"When a little girl goes missing, who does she become? Where does she belong? Moving beyond the past is the only way forward. In this beautifully photographed coming-of-age drama, filmed in rural Manitoba, Euphoria unfolds two road stories about one person: a little girl Lily who's taken away from home by her mother and Michelle, who traces the journey back after many years. Michelle (Taya Dawn Ayotte Bourns) and her mother Celeste (Sarah Constible) have been leading a secret life in Montreal. She's shocked to learn that her father is still alive and decides to return home to see him, even though it means leaving Celeste behind. But the road back to Euphoria means facing real life on her own—a place full of strangers and their stories of love and loss, as well as the haunting memories of another long-ago journey."
