Nothing Really Matters (Canada, 2008)

An agoraphobic man sits in his bathtub contemplating suicide as he narrates a series of flashbacks that explain his current state of mind.

This film was very well done. It started out funny, & grew more & more serious as the story went along. Leo was a very likeable character, making it easy to sympathize with him. Carly, Leo's girlfriend, & even Joe, the landlord, were more complex than it might seem.

Interesting fact: Pascale Bussières, the actress who plays Carly, sang the song over the closing credits.

I saw this film as part of the Sedona International Film Festival.
