    “Canvas” to hit theatres October 12, 2007

    In his debut feature film, writer/director Joseph Greco explores mental illness through the eyes of a child (Devon Gearhart) as he learns to cope with his mother (Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden) and the fact that she has schizophrenia.

    The subject matter is addressed with an uplifting and sometimes even humourous tone that illustrates how from tragedy springs hope, growth, and understanding.

    BCSS has been in touch with the production company to find out the Canadian release dates for this movie.
