“The ridiculousness of me winning in this category is not lost on me,” Polley said as she accepted the best director Genie and paid tribute to her fellow nominees Cronenberg, Denys Arcand, Roger Spottiswoode and Bruce McDonald. She also thanked her executive producer and mentor, Atom Egoyan.

“I began writing this screenplay the day after my husband, David Wharnsby, told me not to give up,” Polley said upon winning a Genie for her screenplay, adapted from Alice Munro’s short story The Bear Came Over the Mountain.

“I made this film with him, I made it because of him and I made it for him,” Polley later added.
