Synopsis

Hair of the Bear

Refusing to go to school, anxious 16-year-old Tori is driven by her mother to her grandfather's rustic cabin in Eastern Manitoba on the remote American-Canadian border. As Tori struggles to adapt to the woodsman ways of her French Canadian grandfather, she ultimately must embrace the outdoors if she is to survive the deadly game of cat and mouse she is thrust into.

Red Dirt

At only twenty, Griffith is struggling with the responsibilities of caring for his unwell aunt, grieving the loss of their family's matriarch, and his own dreams of leaving Pine Apple. With the arrival of a stranger, Griffith's carefully constructed walls of shame and silence begin to come down and his life takes an unexpected turn.
