#1146 - Mike Merry & Mira Metter

Mike Werry and Mira Metter are a Toronto-based Canadian husband-and-wife filmmaking team. Mira Metter directed and wrote the 2026 documentary Broken Country, while Mike Werry co-produced it. They created the film after observing shared declines in everyday Canadian life—particularly around affordability, healthcare access, housing, and related issues—and out of a desire to document those changes for their children’s future. Metter is a Canadian filmmaker born and raised in the country; Werry is a former finance and tech executive who transitioned into film producing.
