| Summary: | When Jackie comes back to her childhood home after separating from her husband, she thinks her biggest problem will be readjusting to life on a smaller bed. She's surprised to learn, however, that her mother has given that bed away to a Sudanese refugee! Cultural differences, language barriers and the self-conscious earnestness of good intentions combine to deliver a scathingly comic look at Canadian values. |
