Based on the international best-selling novel by Miriam Toews, ALL MY PUNY SORROWS blends wry humour with a heart-wrenching story of two loving sisters: one a gifted pianist (Sarah Gadon, BLACK BEAR, AMERICAN WOMAN) obsessed with ending her life, the other a struggling writer (Alison Pill, SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD, GOON) making profound discoveries about herself.

No stranger to CIFF audiences, alumni Director Michael McGowan (STILL MINE, SCORE: A HOCKEY MUSICAL, ONE WEEK) tackles a serious and intense subject matter in this beautifully executed drama about the depth of sisterly relationships, family bonds and wide-open futures.
