Matt, a charismatic author, rekindles a connection with Mara, a struggling creative writing professor.
Trailer
Why watch the movie Matt and Mara?
"Matt and Mara is an intimate drama from Canada about the characters in the title: a writer and a writing teacher who reunite after having an ambiguous past together, now that she is a mother and wife. The film follows a bit of the mumblecore tradition: low-budget films focused on intimate, personal stories about life's aspirations and complications. This particular production, directed by Kazik Radwanski, doesn’t seem to have a clear direction, but if you enjoy stories of personal exploration and scenarios that could have been, you’ll appreciate it."
