What happens

i am a good person/i am a bad person is a 2011 Canadian drama film written and directed by Ingrid Veninger. Veninger decided at short notice to make the film while on a trip to Europe to show another title, Modra. The film loosely incorporates aspects of Veninger's own life; the film within a film is called Modra as is Veninger's movie in real life. Veninger herself plays the lead character who is a filmmaker, like herself, and the filmmaker's daughter, Sara, is played by Veninger's real-life daughter Hallie Switzer. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
