Synopsis: Louise (Emily Hampshire), a waitress in an always empty Chinese restaurant, has a rather unhealthy attachment to her cats. Her relationships with her apartment mates aren’t much better. Her only friend, Spencer (Scott Speedman), is a caustic widower with a supercilious smirk who’s confined to a wheelchair. Meanwhile, newly arrived Victor (Jay Baruchel) is an overly friendly elementary school teacher who’s desperate for human contact. Victor’s painfully obvious interest in Louise upsets the routine that Louise and Spencer have developed – as does a string of unsolved homicides in the area, a subject that Louise takes an unseemly interest in.
