A young actor from the big city stays with two farmers to gather stories about rural life for a play he is working on. The farmers’ lives are irrevocably altered when art attempts to imitate life and the line between truth and fiction cross.

— Shadow Theatre

A Canadian classic!

A young actor from the big city stays with two farmers to gather stories about rural life for a play he is working on. The farmers' lives are irrevocably altered when art attempts to imitate life and the line between truth and fiction cross.

Hilarious, surprising, and infinitely moving.

Winner of the Governor General's Literary Award (1999).
