In Episode 3 of Roughing It in the Bush, Jess animates Tom Wilson, in whom "all extremes appear to meet; the man was a contradiction to himself."...?! Atmospherically underscored with live instrumentation by Devon More.
Moodie's vivid and unique female settler's perspective takes historical nonfiction to an entirely new experiential level, with fabulous female fixtures from the GVRD's diverse creative communities. The saga continues with Episode 4 in the New Year - so stay tuned!.
