With Love and a Major Organ is a 2023 Canadian fantasy drama film, directed by Kim Albright, and starring Anna Maguire and Hamza Haq.[1]
Based on a stage play by Julia Lederer, the film is set in an alternate reality in which all human individuality and emotion has been suppressed by technological mediation; life decisions like careers and relationships are mediated by a computer application called LifeZap rather than personal passions, emotions are explored only in facilities that resemble escape rooms, and even the heart itself is simply a physical object that can be removed from a person's chest.[2]
The cast includes Veena Sood, Donna Benedicto, Arghavan Jenati, Laara Sadiq, Ryan Beil, Kerën Burkett, Enid-Raye Adams, Miho Suzuki, Ken Godmere, Linda Pollard, Jennifer Copping, Michael Daingerfield, Lynda Boyd, Calix Fraser and William Vaughan.
