Screen Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia’s film industry has another success story, with Cape Breton-shot Little Lorraine selling-out local theatres and now playing across the country "Little Lorraine is a powerful example of what’s possible when Nova Scotians come together to tell a Nova Scotia story," said Laura Mackenzie, Executive Director, Screen Nova Scotia. "Inspired by the song of a Nova Scotia musician and brought to life by homegrown talent, local producers, performers and crews, it delivers the kind of authentic storytelling that will resonate with audiences here at home and well beyond our shores. It also reflects the impact of provincial support that helps local stories get made in communities across the province.” https://lnkd.in/esRhy_Rs
