Now she and Billy are back in their hometown, shedding rest with their baby and her rough case: A landowner resists marketing to a mining task that the city desperately would like. There are times that appear contrived, to nudge the plot. Still, this Canadian drama will work effectively, with sound figures and neatly understated performances.
