What You're Ready For
As his marriage crumbles, the Narrator, inspired by his estranged wife, delves into the motivational teachings of self-help author and spiritual guide, Dr. Edgar O. Laird. The taping of Laird’s latest promotional video gives the Narrator a rare opportunity to experience the Doctor’s lessons up close and personal, and more importantly, to find a new outlook on life in the wake of his tragic loss.
What You're Ready For is based on the story of the same name by John Gould, from his 2003 Giller prize short-listed kilter: 55 fictions collection.

As the night wears on and becomes day, he is forced to consider the consequences of his seemingly poor choices, as well as alternate courses of action, which may or may not lead him to a fleeting, but impeccably honest and devastatingly perfect moment.
The Perfection of the Moment is based on the story of the same name by John Gould, from his 2003 Giller prize short-listed kilter: 55 fictions collection.

Defining Edward
Meet Edward Cobb (Joel McNichol), a depressed, pill popping X-rated cartoonist with no girlfriend, no money and little in life to look forward to. When an allergic reaction lands him in the hospital, Edward wanders confused, out into a now unfamiliar world only to collapse again in the middle of nowhere.
Suffering from amnesia, Edward finds himself attended to by Brian (Peter Strand Rumpel), a doctor who believes he can restore Edward’s memory. As pieces of his past slowly return, Edward is introduced to the other inhabitants of the house, Anna (Joely Collins), a fragile, introverted artist, and Nick (Diego 'Diablo' Del Mar), a foul mouthed, beer and whiskey fueled welder.
Divisions appear as the residents of the house take different vastly different approaches to assist Edward in his struggle to regain his identity. And what began as the kindness of strangers, turns into a twisted game of self-preservation, as one man fights to unlock the truth about his own troubled past.
