When an introverted cartoonist's girlfriend wants to redefine their relationship, he begins sleeping with sex workers and discovers a new kind of intimacy in the process. Sook-Yin Lee's film is an auto-fictional adaptation of the Graphic Novel by Chester Brown, and in this interview discusses those personal influences that helped Lee shape the film, one that is very close to home for the Toronto artist community.
