Quote:
"Andrea Dorfman's third feature film is an unabashed love letter to Halifax, the city that the Toronto-born filmmaker has called home for much of her adult life. But Heartbeat is quite a bit more ambitious than that. Though the low-budget film may seem like a standard if somewhat unconventional take on love, the film is actually about the need to love yourself by having the courage to embrace your aspirations."
