Back in early June we brought you the first stills from Adam Smoluk's sophomore feature Foodland which I've been keeping an eye on for months now, and now.. we present to you an exclusive on the poster which will soon be followed by an exclusive on the trailer. What makes me so excited about this? Our own agentorange called it "distinctly Canadian" as it looks like a "cross between a coming of ager, a small town heist film and Kids in the Hall". 'nuf said.

Foodland follows a naïve grocery clerk, Trevor, as his life spirals out of control when he inadvertently helps his inept manger, Ian, rob the store. When the money is lifted off Trevor and Ian, they enlist the help of Glen, a slimy, incompetent detective, to retrieve the stolen cash. But events soon go awry and Trevor must now determine friend from foe, and get the cash back before it’s too late.
