Culture clash – Winnipeg Free Press

Let’s face it: the Canadian film industry has produced lots of films people aren’t particularly interested in seeing. | So you’ve got to hand it to Sean Garrity, a Winnipeg filmmaker who is interested in enticing a movie audience most filmmakers ignore, and has a plan to get his movie shown across the country. | Garrity, 53, has a track record for making films that break through. The sex comedy My Awkward Sexual Adventure, his Winnipeg-shot 2012 collaboration with star and scriptwriter Jonas Chernick, apparently struck a chord internationally. It sold in 24 countries and was translated into 15 languages. | It swept the 2013 Canadian Comedy awards, was remade in Lithuania and Ukraine, and a Bollywood version is in production right now. (Garrity humbly adds that in 2014, he was told by a group of ESL students visiting from Beijing that it was “the most popular illegally downloaded film among Chinese university students.”)
