The details

About this event

Hosted at the intimate Sugar Maple in Bayview, this event offers a unique blend of cinema and craft beer. The venue's relaxed atmosphere makes it an ideal spot to enjoy a thought-provoking film.

The film, presented by Dutch Boy House, marks the cinema debut of director Daniel McCartney.

From the organizer

Milo “Miles” Williams is a rising fashion designer fighting to be seen in a city that only rewards spectacle. When he meets Vee — a magnetic and enigmatic presence — she pushes him to transform his pain into something unforgettable. As Miles channels personal loss into his work, his designs begin to capture attention in ways he never imagined. But success demands reinvention, and the higher he climbs, the more his identity begins to shift. Caught between ambition, grief, and the seductive promise of legacy, Miles must decide how much of himself he’s willing to sacrifice to become one of one.
