Love is never afraid to get a little strange....On this new episode we get dive into one of the more delightful pieces of genre fair that came across our desks in the past 12 months.  It's time to explore 'With Love and A Major Organ'.In a world where everyone's heart is an object and there's a strong societal pressure to dampen emotion, lonely Virtual Insurance broker Anabel (Anna Maguire) always follows her heart. At odds with this overly pragmatic society, and after a series of devastating emotional blows, she rips her heart from her chest and gives it to a man she's fallen for, the strangely unfeeling George (Hamza Haq). Unburdened by her unique yet cumbersome heart, Anabel finds life easier. George, on the other hand, begins to feel everything, to the shock of his overbearing mother, Mona. Anabel soon realizes she needs to get her heart back if she's going to survive. This is just one of those movies where you can feel the joy of the material coming through the screens and especially when the actors get to talk about it all.  'With Love And A Major Organ' is a smart little piece of genre cinema that just so happens to be Canadian. We had the unique pleasure of sitting down with the stars of the film; Anna Maguire and Hamza Haq to talk about the nature of the material, making it in COVID, the joy of getting to do work like this and so very much more....
