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.
