Fall

First Published:

Fall is a Canadian drama written and directed by Terrance Odette. The film stars Michael Murphy as Father Sam, and co-stars Wendy Crewson, Katie Boland, Suzanne Clément, and Cas Anvar. The film was shot in various Ontario locations like Niagara Falls and Sault Ste. Marie.

Father Sam, an aging Roman Catholic Priest living contently at a Niagara Falls parish, receives a letter forcing his complacent life into descent. Now haunted by the memory of a teenage boy, Father Sam must reconcile the truth: did a sexual encounter take place 40 years ago? Can a moral custodian of the faithful; a dispenser of God’s grace, transcend his own FALL?

Finding a church suitable to shoot the film in was a real difficulty for Odette, especially considering the nature of the film’s plot. “Because of the content of the film,” he explains, “the Catholic Church refused to give us permission with any locations. It would have cost a fortune to create a set or transform another type of church. In The Sault, we stumbled upon a closed Catholic Church, run by a funeral home, with a 20 foot Risen Christ in a ring of fire, and the church was in our desired, blue colour-scheme, with a tabernacle!”

Fall is rated PG.
