Episode 640: 'In The Seats With'....Christian Sparkes, Michael Crummey and 'Sweetland'

It's important to scream about our home grown talent from the mountain tops....so plug your ears....On this special episode we dive into some lovely and haunting Can-Con from the magnificent east coast of our country.  Time to visit "Sweetland"."Sweetland" is the story of an endangered Newfoundland community that is on the brink of re-location and one man who is determined to resist it every step of the way.A gorgeously shot character piece, "Sweetland" is saying something real while transporting us to a part of our amazing country that so many people just don't know that much about.I had the pleasure of sitting down with writer/director Christian Sparkes and author Michael Crummey to discuss the origins of the story, and East Coast New Wave, working in the elements and so very much more.
