Plot summary
Bobby Myers, once a lawyer, wants his first job as a producer to yield a picture that Canadians make about a subject that matters to them. The book he options is Lantern Moon, written by Lindsay May Marshall. Putting a movie together in Canada, he finds, demands concessions, chief among them a famous Hollywood name in the leading part. The star he signs, Michael Baytes, arrives with a great deal of baggage, and the concessions stir conflict between the Canadian intention and the push from some quarters for a more American film, Baytes loudest among them. Meanwhile the filmmaker Sandy Ryan records the entire production for a documentary, and she has an agenda of her own: she is also at work on a cheaper picture called Human Voices.
