Shot entirely on Ontario’s Manitoulin Island, Dada is the feature directorial debut of prolific Canadian actor Aaron Poole.

The film follows a teen on the eve of her 16th birthday as she and her divorced father head to a cabin near the world’s largest nuclear power station for a holiday. They drive around the massive perimeter and create a seemingly harmless nonsense game to entertain themselves. But soon, their distinctive playfulness escalates into a power struggle that threatens to tear their relationship apart. The drama stars James Gilbert ( Saw VI ) and newcomer Ciara Alexys and is set to premiere in Sudbury–near where Poole filmed–on November 28.
