The Nova Scotia-created and filmed comedy/drama Faith, Fraud and Minimum Wage is now available to be seen on Movie Central (go here to check out the schedule of screenings).
The film—which I always think of as being called Holy Grounds, an alternative title I gather was the preference of some—is about a coffee shop employee who splashes her cup of coffee on the back wall of the establishment, creating a local phenomena when people keep seeing Jesus Christ in the stain. Ideal holiday programming!
It was directed by George Mihalka and adapted from the play Halo by Josh MacDonald. It stars Martha MacIssac, Callum Keith Rennie, Don Allison, Andrew Bush and Cory Bowles.
