DVD Synopsis
In this gentle comedy, Alex (Michael Riley) seems to be blundering through his life like a misguided housefly. After an absence, he returns to Montreal to discover that his best friend Arto is leaving for a long stay in Cairo. He briefly consoles and then becomes the bedmate of Arto's former girlfriend, and then becomes friendly in an intimate way with a neighbor-woman, a single mom with two kids. None of his prospects, romantic or otherwise, inspire him much. It's just as well that the other inhabitants of his apartment building are so friendly and supportive, from the rather odd landlord to the elderly gay couple. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
This offbeat independent comedy gets a simple presentation for its release on DVD. Because Why has been transferred to disc in the full-frame aspect ratio of 1.33:1, and the audio (in English) has been mastered in Dolby Digital Stereo. No multiple language options or bonus materials have been included with this edition. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
