Canada's iconic director Atom Egoyan is an award-winning scriptwriter, who has a deep appreciation of narrative and how it works on the page and the screen. Over a 30–year career, he has successfully adapted Russell Banks' The Sweet Hereafter and William Trevor's Felicia's Journey, created such original scripts as Exotica and Calendar and directed pieces by screenwriters like Erin Cressida Wilson (Chloe).

Pages' Artistic Director Marc Glassman will interview Egoyan about the creative process involved in directing and often scripting challenging material for the screen. Their conversation will be interspersed with clips from Egoyan's biggest hits.
