Ever wanted to see Michael Ironside as a bus driver at a school for the hearing impaired? Now's your chance with this short Canadian character drama. The kids get to go on a field trip -except for the troubled kid- and Ironside sings along to some Bruce Cockburn (who did the soundtrack and appears briefly). And a mime appears! Don't like mimes? Then you can fuck right off. Real slice of life mood piece and quite nice.
