We Were Here

John and Emma, a New York couple, decide to vacation in a remote Canadian village with no internet or cell service. Their perfect escape from urban life becomes a series of absurd situations as they attempt to integrate into the local community, whose traditions and pace of life feel alien. This 2026 comedy-drama explores modern alienation and the search for authentic connection in a world where digital communication has replaced the real thing. The film balances light humor with moments of poignant self-reflection, showing how two people accustomed to constant availability confront silence and themselves.
