INTEGRAL MAN follows the story of Toronto’s Jim Stewart, a mathematician who spent a decade and a small fortune building the home of his dreams to reflect his two obsessions: curves and music. The completed home, called Integral House, provides him with both. A stunning architectural gem of subtly curved wood and vast, evocative spaces, the house stands in Toronto’s Rosedale neighbourhood and is considered by many one of the city’s best performance spaces.

As winter creeps toward his rural Newfoundland community, local widower and workhorse Patrick Whelan finds himself at odds with a violent young man returning home from a stint in the penitentiary, determined to breathe new life into his father’s bitter feud. As violence erupts, the community is divided – leaving Patrick with a fractured home and nagging guilt. RIVERHEAD is the atmospheric debut feature from emerging Newfoundland filmmaker Justin Oakey. Aggressive, profane, violent, with a stroke of naturalism – this is a raw portrait of secular rivalry in a small town.
