Toronto, ON... Ambrose and Keating, two junior surveyors, are lost in the Canadian Rockies with Wing, the Chinese cook. As the snow begins to fall, the men's discussion of colonialism, women, faith and the future, descends into petty and hilarious squabbles. A darkly comic look at man, mountains and the meaning of life, What Lies Before Us is another brilliant trip from two-time Governor-General's Award winner Morris Panych.
