Along Highway 401, as you approach Kitchener from Toronto, you will see two notable billboards. One, an icon, an idol and a symbol of home. The other, a distant figure, often passed without a second thought. When Catherine’s car spins out in a snowstorm, she is launched into the world of Schneider and Jesus Saves. She stays at their house, eats wieners with them and listens to their marital problems. Wiener Beacon explores themes of selfishness, greed, love and power and begs the question: What does it take for a giver to start taking?
