Project Canada

Off the Grid Pictures first feature-length documentary, Project Canada, hits the film fest circuit.

The three month production phase of Project Canada was completed at the end of August, 2006. The crew traveled over 17,000 miles in 78 days and shot more than 80 hours of footage. They saw the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, traveled almost to the Arctic Circle, and still made it home with only one hospital visit; (Tim.) The film saw great success at our world premiere in Boise in April. The Denver premiere in May was an amazing event, and a great party. Since then the film has screened at festivals and events in Long Beach, Pittsburg, Minneapolis, Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Salmon Arm, and Vancouver, to name a few. We've had some great media coverage, and there is definitely a buzz about the film! There are more festival screenings to come, so stay posted to the site. And don't forget to get your own copy of Project Canada! DVDs are available right here on the site or through Amazon.com. Thanks for the support!
