A trailer has been released for Paul Schrader's highly-anticipated Oh, Canada, based on the 2021 novel Foregone by the late Russell Banks. IndieWire reported that the film, which premiered in competition at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival and went on to screen at TIFF, stars Jacob Elordi and Richard Gere as a documentarian in two different stages of his life.
Schrader described the film to IndieWire as about "Canada being a metaphor for death," he said. "It's my Ivan Ilyich." Oh, Canada premieres in select theaters December 6 from Kino Lorber. Banks and director Schrader previously collaborated on Affliction.
