To the Moon

A heartwarming, offbeat comedy about love, self-discovery, and the beautiful mess of growing up—at any age. Sam (Jacob Sampson), a closeted single dad on the cusp of an empty nest, is trying to figure out what’s next for himself, while his savvy teen daughter Ella (Phoebe Rex) keeps things in check. When their eccentric new neighbour Claire (Amy Groenig) arrives on the scene, their lives begin to intertwine in surprising and delightful ways.

With sharp humor and tender moments—and dancing—director Kevin Hartford, joined by celebrated Halifax producer Thom Fitzgerald (Cloudburst, The Hanging Garden), delivers a winsome story full of heart, hope, and the unexpected rhythms of connection.

Followed by a post-screening Q&A with the filmmakers.
