Because Why is a 1993 Canadian independent film, directed by Arto Paragamian and starring Michael Riley. Very low-keyed, with doses of comedy, the film won the Audience Award at the 1994 Mannheim International Film Festival.
After several years of travelling abroad Alex returns to his hometown. All he has is a backpack, a skateboard and a slip of paper with an ex-girlfriend's address. When this address turns out to be an empty lot, Alex feels lost. He then moves into a neighbourhood which features an odd array of characters.[1]
