Anecdotes

Whole New Thing is a 2005 Canadian drama film directed by Amnon Buchbinder. The film is a coming-of-age narrative about a 13-year-old boy, Emerson Thorsen who lives in an isolated straw-bale house with his counter-cultural parents, Rog and Kaya. However, when Kaya decides that homeschooling provides too little structure for Emerson, she enrolls him at the local middle-school under the tuition of 43-year-old Don Grant. Emerson, despite displaying a developed intellectual approach to sexuality, discovers the problems that come with developing a crush, and the taboo of this crush being his male teacher.

Production

The script was co-written by Buchbinder and Daniel MacIvor, and was filmed entirely on location in Mahone Bay and Halifax, Nova Scotia, during winter and over the course of 15 days.

The film soundtrack is scored by David Buchbinder, and contains songs by The Hidden Cameras.

The film is distributed by THINKFilm and co-funded by the NSFDC.
