Director Chloé Cinq-Mars will be in attendance at the September 27 screening.

Chloé Cinq-Mars's debut feature explores the psychological and physical toll of early motherhood, specifically focusing on a new mother experiencing sleep deprivation and postpartum depression. NESTING delves into the protagonist's descent into paranoia and isolation as she struggles with her mental state and the pressures of motherhood. Blurring the lines between dreams and waking life, both intimate and unsettling, this bold, psychological thriller is a portrait of a mother unraveling. Lead actress Rose-Marie Perreault delivers a career-defining performance and intensely brings you into her world, where you undoubtedly feel for her throughout the film.

A young insomniac woman and her baby witness a robbery at a convenience store. The event stirs up painful memories for the mother, who gradually loses touch with reality, eventually endangering her child.
