Dianne Whelan’s 6-year, 24,000 km journey across Canada reveals new ways of living with the land.

24,000 km on foot, by canoe, bike and snowshoes: For six years, filmmaker Dianne Whelan travelled the Trans Canada Trail – solo, coast to coast to coast. What began as an escape becomes a search for new ways of living with the land. Encounters with Indigenous elders, friends, and powerful landscapes shape this adventure with depth. With humour, grit, stunning images and a great soundtrack, this film entertains and offers hope for a better future. For those drawn to wilderness, reflection, and new perspectives.
