4th Annual Saskatchewan Environmental Film Festival: See the Change, Be the Change March 27-28, 2009 We have the pleasure of being on a Filmmaker's Panel also, after the screening. http://www.econet.sk.ca/films2009.html
The sound recordist for Boreal Forest Expedition, Travis L. Dyck, married the wonderful Teegan Odell on December 18th in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Congratulations are in order!
It's the end of our second day here in Toronto. The city is really neat, most of the buildings are made out of brick, beautiful! Nick attended the opening screening last night, and learned about the politics of water. Don't buy bottled water!!!! Our film screened tonight as part of a Canadian shorts program, along with some other great films. We did our first audience Q&A afterwards too, where people wanted to know more about Dad and the process of trapping. We're really enjoying being here and the festival so far. We're looking forward to checking out more interesting films and taking in more great sights, foods and company.
We're leaving late Tuesday night to head out to Toronto for the Planet in Focus festival. The whole family is going, including our daughters Ezra (nineteen months old) and Anya (four months old). It will be our first time in Toronto, so we're looking forward to exploring, eating and watching some great nature films. We'll update the blog when we're there.

Synopsis
Pat Bradford teaches his daughter and infant granddaughter about his life in the forests of Saskatchewan, Canada. Leading them down rivers and through trees, he explains fur-trapping techniques and what brings him to the land. Shot entirely on Super 8, this documentary roves over the Saskatchewan landscapes and delves into the family relationships that motivate the stoic trapper.
