Paper Summary:

"Homer's The Odyssey is among the most durable and malleable stories ever told. It seems natural for The Odyssey to be recast as a Canadian film. This essay will not discuss casting or directors in detail, but rather be a light treatment of the story for the film. With a major film-adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's The Road hitting the screen this year, the time is ripe for The Odyssey to enjoy a similar retelling. Set in a post-apocalyptic Canada, Odysseus has been seeing action in Ottawa for the last decade. Ottawa is Troy, and Victoria, BC, is Ithaca. "
