Contest: Win Tickets to See 'Obvious Child' in Ottawa! (CONTEST CLOSED)

People raved after enjoying a Toronto sneak peek of ObviousChild earlier this week. Now Obvious Child wants to warm the hearts (and butter) of Ottawa readers. Obvious Child opens in Ottawa this July, but a few lucky readers may win tickets to a sneak peek of this summer’s breakout indie comedy starring Jenny Slate! Answer the trivia below for your chance to win.


Synopsis: For aspiring comedian Donna Stern, everyday life as a female twenty-something provides ample material for her hysterical and relatable brand of humor. On stage, Donna is unapologetically herself, joking about topics as intimate as her sex life and as crude as her day-old underwear. But when Donna winds up unexpectedly pregnant after a one-night stand, she is forced to face the uncomfortable realities of independent womanhood for the first time. Donna’s drunken hookup – and epic lapse in prophylactic judgment – turns out to be the beginning of a hilarious and totally unplanned journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

Anchored by a star-making performance from Jenny Slate, Obvious Child is a true Sundance gem: a heartfelt discovery packed tight with raw, energetic comedy and moments of poignant honesty and vulnerability. Writer/Director Gillian Robespierre handles the topic of Donna's unwanted pregnancy with a refreshing matter-of-factness rarely seen onscreen. And with Donna, Slate and Robespierre have crafted a character for the ages – a female that audiences will recognize, cheer for, and love.
