Being a hero is about the shortest lived profession on earth.  Just ask 42 year-old Ben Casper - a straight-laced Canadian border guard stationed at Snowflake, Manitoba, who finds himself the focus of a drug-trafficking kingpin. Forced to choose between love, law and his very life, Ben Casper is told to swallow his ideals and look the other way.  In the vein of the Scandinavian cinema of the absurd, Here Be 49 is a comedy about one man's stiff approach to the world we live in and the ramifications of having ideals that clash with those closest to you.  Written by Kelly Harms.      

Something is not right with Donald Melnyk.  He goes through life on autopilot.  He shuts himself off to the outside world.  Donald is the cuckold husband to a woman – a teacher who is in prison for sleeping with one of her students.  Everything Donald knows is taken away in one fell swoop and he’s plunged into a world of doubt.  How does somebody recover from something this emotionally devastating?  After a chance meeting, Donald develops an unhealthy obsession with the 13 year-old boy who he seems to think holds the answers he is searching for.  Pushed to the brink, Donald must choose between abject despair or personal redemption; both coming at a huge cost.  This is a story delving into themes of loyalty, guilt, sex, and identity-crisis roles in society and the journey Donald takes will lead him to life-affirming conclusions with very real consequences.  Written by Kelly Harms and Maxwell McCabe-Lokos. 

In 2001, about 3800 Sudanese refugees (mostly male) arrived in North America, where they are now scattered in about 38 cities.  Most of the boys were orphaned or separated from their families when government troops systematically attacked villages in southern Sudan killing many of the inhabitants, most of whom were civilians.  The younger boys, who managed to escape, orphaned and without support, made epic journeys (literally lasting years) across the borders to international relief camps in Ethiopia and Kenya.  Evading thirst, starvation, wild animals, insects, disease, and one of bloodiest wars of the 20th century, experts say they are the most badly war-traumatized children ever examined.   The name “Lost Boys” was given by organizations, which aided in resettling some of the refugees from Sudan to North America.

A refugee living in Toronto stumbles across a man who took part in the genocide of his village in Sudan.  With the mounting pressure of the displaced Sudanese community, he must now decide whether to exact revenge for a distant crime of the past or live his life for the future. Screenplay written by Kelly Harms and Svet Rouskov.
