Episode 150: Courtney Paige and Kaitlyn Bernard discuss ‘The Sinners’

The YVR Screen Scene Podcast

Pride and greed. Lust and envy. Gluttony, wrath, and sloth. Those are all sins – the cardinal sins, the capital sins, the seven deadly sins – and they’re the foundation stones for The Sinners, a terrifying and exciting feature-length thriller from filmmaker Courtney Paige. The Sinners follows seven girls from a religious high school who decide to rebel by starting a cult in which they embody the seven deadly sins. Kaitlyn Bernard plays Grace Carver, the pastor’s daughter and most popular girl in school, who discovers her friend Aubrey is about to air out all of their dirty little secrets. Action must be taken. That action leads to kidnapping, and murder, and something possibly worse than death.

Courtney co-wrote The Sinners with Erin Hazlehurst and Madison Smith. Besides Kaitlyn, the film features Brenna Coates, Brenna Llewellyn, Keilani Elizabeth Rose, Jasmine Randhawa, Carly Fawcett, Natalie Malaika, and some veterans of the Vancouver film and TV scene: Aleks Paunovic, Loretta Walsh, Lochlyn Munro, Michael Eklund, Dylan Playfair, Elysia Rotaru, Brendan Taylor, and Tahmoh Penikett. In this riveting episode of the YVR Screen Scene Podcast, Courtney Paige and Kaitlyn Bernard join Sabrina to discuss the many facets of The Sinners. Episode sponsor: Fish Flight Entertainment
