YOUR PLACE OR MINE

Dir: Jessica Joy Wise (Director will be in attendance for a Q&A)
Canada – 2012

Your Place or Mine is about the tentative first few hours of meeting someone. Annie and Danny meet, feel a spark, and it’s in those initial moments it could all go either way. These are big decisions determined by little moments; a glib comment, a simple gesture, a meaningful touch – can swing the outcome one way or the other. Short-lived lust or lasting love? One-night stand or soul-mate?

When did you last talk with your father? Will you ever ask him about those things that hurt you?

The film is based on the authentic experiences of several young people – interviewed by Diana Ivanova – and then put together in an animated documentary story by five unique animation directors.
