At a time of plague and widespread fear, an estranged brother and sister are reunited in a distant landscape that sits between the realms of the living and the dead. Burdened by family secrets and the stigma and shame of addictions, each sibling has been summoned to perform a risky rite of passage. The brother’s mission is to save his sister; the sister’s mission is to save the world.
Development of Epigone has been supported by Vancity Community Foundation; and the Elsie and Audrey Jang Fund, held at Vancouver Foundation.
