What happens
The Woman of Ahhs: A Self-Portrait by Victoria Fleming – also known as The Woman of Ahhs – is a 2008 Canadian dramatic comedy film directed by B. P. Paquette and starring Darryl Hunter, Holly O'Brien, and Stephanie Dixon. Set predominantly in Montreal, the film is a parody of The Wizard of Oz, and contains performances of original songs, including "Not Bad (Not Bad at All)" by legendary bluesman Mel Brown (guitarist), wherein the lyrics comment upon and propel the narrative, as do a triad of contemporary dance performances by celebrated Cirque du Soleil choreographer Debra Brown. The Woman of Ahhs is the second panel in Paquette's triptych on "the psychology of romantic love," preceded by A Year in the Death of Jack Richards (2004), and followed by The Anonymous Rudy S. (2019). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
