Synopsis

In the fall of 1918, the town of Unity, Saskatchewan is celebrating the end of World War One and the return of its young soldiers. However, the resilience of the town is tested as a new and unexpected challenge emerges. In this painfully funny work of moving familiarity, the characters in the farming community of Kevin Kerr’s Unity (1918), resonate powerfully and surprisingly.

A gothic romance filled with dark comedy, Unity (1918) earned the Governor General’s Literary Award for Drama as well as the Sydney Risk Award for Outstanding Original Script and the Jessie Richardson Award for Outstanding Original Script.
