It’s the summer of 1976, and in small-town Nova Scotia Kit (Dylan Authors) is looking to run away from home with his girlfriend Alice (Julia Sarah Stone) in order to reunite with his estranged mother Laurie (Molly Parker).

At first Kit struggles to articulate his reasons for leaving, though it’s clear that it has something to do with his father Dave (Allan Hawco). However with time and distance he begins to understand his heart’s true desire, and unlike Alice it isn’t to finally consummate their relationship.

Weirdos, the latest film from the quintessentially Canadian auteur Bruce McDonald, is on its face just another road trip comedy with the spirit of Andy Warhol, but this time Warhol actually appears on screen — although for legal reasons, per the credits, Rhys Bevan-John plays “Not Andy Warhol.” It’s the summer of 1976 in Nova Scotia when Kit (Dylan Authors) takes out on the road with his radiant pal Alice (Julia Sarah Stone). She’s as confused as he is when she asks if they’ll be having “goodbye sex,” something they’ve been putting off for an obvious reason.
Kit and Alice bum rides, walk, and hitchhike from Antigonish to the shore where Kit hopes to escape his father’s unkind words at home and move in with his mother Laura (Molly Parker), a hippy who regrets she ever moved out of Toronto. She’s presumably more open-minded than his...
