Finding Farley(2009)
Finding Farley Synopsis
In this feature documentary, husband-and-wife team Karsten Heuer and Leanne Allison (Being Caribou), along with their 2-year-old son and dog, retrace the literary footsteps of Canadian writer Farley Mowat. They canoe east from Calgary towards the Prairies (the geography of Farley's Born Naked and Owls in the Family) and then traverse the same paths that Mowat took more than 60 years earlier in Never Cry Wolf and People of the Deer. Their epic 5,000 km journey—trekking, sailing, portaging and paddling—ends in the Maritimes, at Mowat's Nova Scotia summer home.
Finding Farley (2009) is a documentary film directed by Leanne Allison, released on October 13, 2009 with a runtime of 1h 3m. It stars Leanne Allison, Karsten Heuer and Farley Mowat.
