A character drama disguised as a procedural, Prodigals gives a fresh coat of paint to the proverbial return to the hometown. There are no plain heroes and villains in this story, just a group of people struggling to keep their head above water. Friendships have grown complicated by familiarity, resentment, and lies. A lot of lies.
Prodigals was directed by Michelle Ouellet and written by Nicholas Carella, who also co-stars.
The Canadian Crew talked at length with Michelle and Nick. We discussed the challenges of juggling multiple roles on set, how to make BC look like Northern Ontario, and how to best use screen testing to improve your film.
