Summary Meira is a Hasidic wife and mother consumed by the strict rules of her society. Felix is an eccentric French Canadian man mourning his wealthy father. When the two meet in a bakery, an unexpected friendship is born. It soon blossoms into something more as they open one another's eyes to the possibilities that lie beyond their worlds. Trapped by tradition, Meira must decide whether to remain in the only life she's ever known, or give it all up to be with Felix. Winner of Best Canadian Feature Film at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. "*FELIX AND MEIRA appears to be a simple movie about fitting in, acceptance and sacrifice. Yet it's so elegant and poses many different sides that it's actually a very complex film with very complex characters.*" - Leba Hertz, **San Francisco Chronicle**
