Details.
Wiki.
Improper Channels is a Canadian comedy-drama film, directed by Eric Till. Its copyright year is listed as 1979, but it was not released until 1981.
The film stars Alan Arkin as architect Jeff Martley, and Mariette Hartley as his estranged wife Diana. After their daughter Nancy suffers a mild injury as the result of a car accident, a zealous social worker (Monica Parker) wrongly accuses him of child abuse and takes custody of the girl.
The film received four nominations at the 3rd Genie Awards in 1982. These were for Best Foreign Actor (Arkin), Best Foreign Actress (Hartley), Best Original Screenplay (Adam Arkin, Morrie Ruvinsky and Ian Sutherland) and Best Art Direction/Production Design (Ninkey Dalton and Charles Dunlop). Arkin won the award for Best Foreign Actor.
