After a trip to New York that makes her question everything in her life, Brooklyn is back in her Vancouver apartment. But rather than wait patiently for her boyfriend to get home, she erases every trace of her return and moves in with her friend Faith for the summer. Brooklyn is not alone in running away from a relationship. Faith and her partner Casey avoid working on their life together in every way possible. When Casey asks Brooklyn to play the lead in his new play, a reflection on male-female couples, the two reach a new level of understanding. And that lays the foundations for this hyperrealist comic love triangle. Indie director Terry Miles (singer/ songwriter for the band Ashley Park) used a guided documentary process in collaboration with talented young actors who improvise dialogue that is deadpan, hysterical, tearful, and poignant. His cheerfully nosey camera manages to be in the right place at the right time, immersing itself, and us, in a story we feel completely a part of. One by one, he peels back the layers of family, work, friendship and love. Brooklyn says it's an onion.
