Mount Pleasant background

Mount Pleasant

A discarded needle in a young girl's backyard sets off a chain of events that intertwines the lives of three couples, revealing the tenuous nature of love and the sinister consequences of obsession.

In Vancouver, three couples' stories intertwine, focusing on the city's socioeconomic and housing divide. The wealthy Burrows, living on the west side, prioritize appearance and prestige over substance. Their daughter, Megan, struggles to find her voice under her mother's control. In contrast, the working-class Camerons, who recently bought a home in Mount Pleasant, face challenges due to their neighborhood's social issues. As they navigate their struggles, they must confront their own biases and priorities. Meanwhile, Nadia, a teenager, and her boyfriend, Nick, a drug addict, face their own challenges, including Nadia's goal to save money for a trip to Thailand and her sister's attempts to support her.
