BOOK NOW

Jamie is a young, working-class guy who loves the natural world but at the same time has to clear cut the forests near his home town in Nova Scotia, Canada, to make ends meet. The job is soul-crushing but Jamie tries to use his free time to save animals that survived the man-made devastation. One day he saves a hawk which cannot fly, another day he rescues unhatched eggs. This gives him a sense of purpose he desperately seeks, for Jamie lives in a world devoid of any real perspectives. He dreams of escaping it with his beloved girl but deep down he knows the reality will probably suffocate him. Jamie belongs to yet another lost generation of young people whose wings had been clipped before they could even imagine flying, and whose minds had been additionally burdened by the destruction of the planet they care about. Despite all the hardships, Jamie tries to be cautiously optimistic about what lies ahead. Will he be able to change his stars, or is he already doomed to live, die, and be forgotten just like countless trees he helped to destroy?
