April 24 – 28 @ 7pm

"Sometimes it’s a disservice to call a movie “small.” Not always. Ingrid Veninger and Simon Reynolds’s Only is as small as they come. Other words that apply just as well are “intimate,” “modest” and “delicate.” Also “lovely.” - Now Magazine http://www.nowtoronto.com/movies/story.cfm?content=169080

Daniel lives in a motel, managed by his parents, in northern Ontario. People come, people go, Daniel hardly notices. Until one day a girl arrives and changes his world.

ONLY is a glimpse into the heightened impressions and dreams of two unlikely 12-year-olds. Over the course of a single day, they venture on a journey, exploring deep secrets, dark fears, and first love in a pure and powerful meeting of young hearts and minds.

“A deceptively simple film… ONLY gently unfolds to become a deft – and blunt – exploration of the anxious yet romantic world of teens.” - Globe and Mail. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story

“… the kids respond with impressively unaffected performances. They truly seem to be listening to each other.” - EYE Magazine. **** (4 out of 5)


“I hope programmers in America take the time to catch up with this little gem of a movie and that ONLY finds its way to audiences everywhere.” - IndieWire http://blogs.indiewire.com/twhalliii/archives/toronto_2008_only/

“Every time I see a film like Ingrid Veninger and Simon Reynolds’ Only, my faith in cinema is restored.” - hammerontail.com

“First-time feature filmmakers Veninger and Reynolds have a firm grasp on finding the magic in life's mundane details.” Janis Cole, NOW Magazine. *** (3 out of 4).
