Tour Highlights

The tour brings together filmmakers, anglers, guides, conservation voices, and local communities for immersive screenings and conversations that celebrate wild rivers and the Atlantic salmon that depend on them.

Why it Matters

Protecting Atlantic salmon requires more than awareness it requires people coming together. By creating a space where diverse voices can come together to listen, learn, and exchange ideas, the tour helps turn shared concern into a stronger, unified effort for conservation.

Against the Current

Against the Current

This film follows Fred Campbell and his mother, Monique, on a deeply emotional journey in Nunavik on the Delay River, a wild and untouched river flowing into Ungava Bay where Atlantic salmon still thrive. At its heart, the story is one of resilience, love, and perseverance—mirroring the salmon that swim upstream against all odds.

As Monique faces illness and the passage of time, Fred brings her back to the North, reconnecting her with the healing power of nature and the memories forged years earlier on a salmon expedition in Gaspésie. À contre-courant is a moving tribute to wild rivers, the enduring bond between mother and son, and the timeless hope embodied by Atlantic salmon.

Contours of Nature

Contours of Nature

Contours of Nature follows the poetic life journey of a man shaped by a lifelong passion for fly fishing. Beginning with a formative childhood experience on the stormy shores of the Irish Sea in the 1940s, the film traces how this first encounter with water and wonder grew into a deep, enduring relationship with nature. As the years pass—from coal mines to the rivers of the Canadian Rockies—fly fishing becomes less about the fish and more about patience, presence, and those rare moments when man and nature are in perfect balance.

Through elegant narration and intimate reflection, the film also bears witness to the growing fragility of wild rivers, questioning our impact on the land. Now in his eighties, still walking riverbanks with old friends, the protagonist embodies a quiet wisdom and a powerful message: true passion is not about conquest, but about understanding, respect, and protection.

In Kind

In Kind was born from Kate and Scotty Sherin’s gratitude for the positive impact fishing has had on their lives, evolving from a simple fishing bet into a deeper search for meaning and connection. Traveling through the Maritimes in pursuit of trout and salmon, they meet anglers and researchers whose lives have also been shaped by this passion. The film celebrates wild rivers, adventure, and friendship, while highlighting the unspoken promise shared by many anglers—to give back to the waters they love through conservation, community, and stewardship, in return.
