Geographies of Solitude
Part of CINEMA EXPLORATIONS, a wintertime community-curated film series.
Free admission, made possible by the Colby Center for the Arts and Humanities.
GEOGRAPHIES OF SOLITUDE is an immersion into the rich landscapes and biosphere of Nova Scotia’s Sable Island and the life of Zoe Lucas, a naturalist and environmentalist who has lived over 40 years on this once-treacherous shipwreck-strewn remote strip of sand that is home to far more horses than people. This award-winning documentary from Canadian director Jacquelyn Mills shows both how easily the refuse from the mainland befouls this pristine place and the price of being dedicated to spending a lifetime keeping watch and chronicling it all. "A beguiling and poetic film." –Wendy Ide, Screen Daily.
