Nova Scotian
Set in a rural Black Nova Scotian community, The Bridge explores the
complex relationship between two brothers strained over twenty years of
secrecy, deception, and dishonour. Secrets are revealed one by one from
the brothers themselves, as well as a trio of community gossips who
provide the musical backdrop for this gospel-infused tale. A story of a
family torn apart by betrayal, The Bridge invites us to consider the
roads we choose in life, and to wonder whether we can ever cross back
over the bridges we burn along the way
