Come November, Atom is pleasantly surprised to discover that his new lover is also Armenian, and for the first time since his divorce, he does not want a third party called for stimulation. But just as he and his new girlfriend begin to understand their parallel pasts, Atom's still beloved ex-wife, whose videos and phone messages he obsessively replays, calls with the excruciating details of her every infidelity...

Egoyan, also the film's director, is in true form with a dense, powerful production that will mystify viewers even as it demystifies its dark, complicated protagonist. In a style somewhat akin to Woody Allen, this film weaves together a conflicting, nuanced portrait of relationships as it explores the tensions of love, longing and loss. All in all, CALENDAR is a profound, brooding work that fractures time in an incomparably provocative style.
