Circle of Truth(2023)

Circle of Truth is a short film without dialogue set to an original score. On the island of Newfoundland, Canada, a man alone in his rural home awaits the spring thaw with the arrival of hardy plants, insects and birds. The film tracks his daily labour though the seasons as he builds, tends and harvests a circular garden enriched by the bounty of seaweed and fish that he gathers from the island's shore. His dedication to the earth that feeds him and his intimacy with his natural surroundings reveals a portrait of an unadorned purposeful life.
