At the Crossroads

About This Movie

At the Crossroads is a haunting documentary that delves into the complex layers of Canada's economic struggles during the 70s and 80s. The film weaves a narrative that's both informative and reflective, casting a stark light on the pre-NAFTA realities and the looming dependency on the U.S. It has this gritty, raw vibe that draws you in, almost like a conversation among friends discussing hard truths but with a camera rolling. You can feel the weight of those economic shifts, and the pacing is deliberate, allowing you to digest each fact and figure. The visuals are straightforward but impactful—there’s no flashy editing here, just a clear-eyed examination of the past, making it distinctively powerful in its earnestness.
