Just Passing Through
A web series funded by the Independent Production Fund entitled Just Passing Through wraps shooting on PEI this week. PEI filmmaker Jeremy Larter and his brother Jason are at the helm of the production, along with WIFT-AT member Jenna MacMillan. The story revolves around the relationship of Owen Stephens and Terry and Parnell Gallant; rough and tumble cousins from PEI who arrive unannounced on Owen’s Toronto doorstep. They swear they’re “just passing through” Toronto to sweet jobs in Alberta. But like every family reunion, this one turns out to be more than Owen’s bargained for. Coming May 2013.
