- Two stories woven together, one profoundly affecting the other. A Native Canadian grandfather drives north accompanied by his grandson, a youth-at-risk, who comes to learn about the dark secrets of his family and community: in an isolated village an estranged mother and daughter must reunite to exorcise the voracious Windigo spirit tied to a painful past.

- Still Kicking: William Shatner and 'Christopher Plummer' is a one-hour television special that captures the memories and insights of these two icons. The setting is the stage of the renowned Stratford Shakespeare Festival Stage, where both men launched their careers in the 1950s, and were then propelled to international stardom. Both continue to produce incredible work. Plummer earned an Academy Award in 2012 for his performance in Beginners. He recently wrote a best-selling autobiography, and will soon be returning to the stage of the Stratford Festival for the theatre's 60th anniversary season. Shatner won four Emmys for his portrayal of Denny Crane on Boston Legal, and also recently wrote a best-selling book, and currently has an amazing four television series on air.
- Two people on a blind date, in a restaurant they can't see eat in the dark. They develop chemistry. They exit. Will they live up to expectations?
- A number of British Columbia-based creative artists - from visual artists such as painters and carvers, to writers, to musicians, to a landscape architect - speak about what home means to them, both in a general sense stemming from their background and experience, and as it relates to their craft. An ethnobotanist, a developer and a philanthropist also speak about the same from their unique perspectives, with the addition of speaking about that art piece in not being artists themselves per se. In both groups, the place could be a geopolitical entity such as a city, a physical space of some other kind, and/or a state of mind.
- A number of British Columbia based athletes, both professional and amateur, and both active and retired, talk about what home means to them. Their perspectives are often in light of needing to be in a certain geographic location due to their sport, having done quite a bit of travel for that sport, and how participating in that sport has affected their decision of "home" in a retirement life. These perspectives somewhat apply also to a spoken word poet, who is on a stage like the athletes, but to some extent has a broader choice of home in relation to his work. The final interview is with an author, who has a totally different perspective in being able to choose wherever he wants to live in terms of his work, and in this specific incident what home actually means to him in light of that.
