The picture is from CKR's new movie Unnatural & Accidental.

The website this is from is here. Hopefully there will be more than just that one page soon.

Also, the summary:
Unnatural & Accidental is the feature length dramatic film adaptation of the stage play entitled, The Unnatural and Accidental Women by renowned Metis playwright Marie Clements and is based loosely around the "unnatural and accidental" downing deaths of native women living on skid row. Rebecca has returned home to be with her dying father. His last wish is that she track down her mother, an aboriginal woman who has long been missing. As she turns over the stones that hide the debris of the unwanted and forgotten, she is drawn into the mysteries of ten missing Native women whose spirits lead Rebecca to the killer who still haunts the alleys, streets and hotels of this urban wasteland.

A serial killer this time? Oh, Callum.

ETA: And I found another article here:
Vancouver - Director Carl Bessai, known for his quieter, character-driven features Emile and Lola, is busting out of his pigeonhole with a new film that disturbs even him. Unnatural & Accidental wrapped a three-week shoot last month in Vancouver, and while Bessai hopes audiences will be compelled by the movie, he also expects them to be somewhat sickened by its violent subject matter.

Marie Clements wrote the script, adapting it from her play The Unnatural and Accidental Women. It's about a woman searching for her aboriginal mother, who is instead led to her mother's killer by the spirits of other women he has murdered in Vancouver's skid row area.

Bessai says the tragic and nonlinear script was a welcome challenge.

"I've tried to take a very gritty subject and make it kind of beautiful," he says. "It's a really violent, unrelenting movie. Some scenes were hard to watch being filmed, but this is a strong moral film that has a lot to say about the urban native experience and the general lack of interest in their lives."

Bessai produces with Jason James (Rugged Rich and the Ona Ona). The film stars Carmen Moore (Godiva's), Tantoo Cardinal (H2O) and Callum Keith Rennie (Whiskey Echo), who, Bessai says, is "awesome" as the killer.

*sigh* Oh, Callum.
