DVD UPC/EAN # 9312590150234

Cast: Alison Bruce, Nicola Murphy, Oliver Driver, Simon Ferry, Florence Hartigan.
Screenplay: Vanessa Alexander; Photography: Fred Renata; Art Director: Simon Harper; Editor: Eric DeBeus; Composer: Victoria Kelly; Producer: Larry Parr; Director: Vanessa Alexander.

As everyone in town gears up for the annual Hokitka Wild Foods Festival, Magik and Rose are locked in a poignant and funny off-beat tale of friendship and fertility. The result could end a good marriage, redefine the "perfect man", as well as discover what it means to be mother and daughter. I wonder how the crew "found" so many sunny days in which to film this, short of ideal, quirky comedy. Somewhat muddled fair, but enjoyable just the same.
