TORONTO — As Quebec filmmaker Kim Nguyen tells it, “The Hummingbird Project” is about moving heaven and earth to save a fraction of a second. And there were some close calls.”Thankfully, Nguyen found willing soldiers in the film’s cast and crew. Skarsgard said he wanted to go the extra mile to work with Nguyen after seeing his 2012 Oscar-nominated film “War Witch,” even if it meant playing against type. “I was very excited to be able to play a powerful woman on Wall Street, and at the end, I love that she’s also an immigrant,” she said. “It’s as if we feel just as American as French and Canadian, in a way,” he said.
