Chandler Levack’s anticipated follow-up to her directorial debut, I Like Movies (TIFF ’22), stars Barbie Ferreira as Grace Pine, a driven though easily distracted 23-year-old music critic. She leaves her parents’ home for a shared apartment in Montréal to devote herself to a book about Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill for the 33 1/3 series. Instead, she’s swept into the local scene, juggling loft parties, creative ambitions, and a messy romance involving two members of the same band, Bone Patrol. As she takes on work as their publicist, distractions mount and responsibilities pile up.

Through wine-fueled poetry readings and other ill-advised choices, Grace is in the trenches of self-discovery. Mistakes are made and rent is owed, but along the way Mile End Kicks gives audiences a new romantic comedy to fall in love with.
