The Thin Place follows the Pardys, a family from "around the bay" who, after their community votes to resettle, float their house across the ocean to a new home…. The only issue? They've been lost at sea for days now.

A magical-realist drama that explores the legacy of resettlement in Newfoundland.

A lazy river through purgatory.
