I was intrigued when I read about a high school girl, Elizabeth Moore, who had been recruited into the Heritage Front, a neo-nazi group in Toronto. She rose up in the ranks of the organization before she finally defected. I spent many hours interviewing Elizabeth trying to understand how she became caught up in that toxic movement and what happened to make her leave. I spoke to a number of members of the Heritage Front, including their patron saint, the infamous holocaust denier, Ernst Zundel.
The film, produced by my mentor, Phil Savath and overseen by the CBC's Brian Freeman, is a chilling look at the extreme right in Canada and its appeal to young people. Directed with a very kinetic look by Kari Skogland, with extraordinary performances by Sarah Polley and Lynn Redgrave.
