With Love and A Major Organ is the debut feature film from director Kim Albright. The film is written by Julia Lederer, based on her stage play, and is set in a world where hearts are made of inanimate objects and people suppress emotions to escape into technology, the story shares the travails of a vibrant young woman deftly played by Anna Maguire (Violation), who rips out her heart for the man she loves, played to mild-mannered perfection by Hamza Haq (Transplant) who promptly disappears with it. I spoke to director Kim Albright via Zoom to discuss With Love and A Major Organ, which is now playing in limited release in Canada.
