Piers Haggard directed this whimsical Canadian-British comedy-drama set in tiny Conquest, Saskatchewan (pop. 124), where local banker Pincer Bedier (Lothar Bluteau) encourages new businesses. After the Alfa Romeo of Daisy MacDonald (Tara Fitzgerald) stalls in Conquest, Pincer recruits her to run the local hardware store in a trade for repairs to her vehicle. Shown at the 1998 Montreal World Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi
