A Breed Apart

Set on a remote farm in 1859, Canada, A Breed Apart follows the story of a young boy who is thrust into a world of fear and uncertainty after a mysterious illness claims the life of his mother shortly after their arrival from Great Britain. With their first winter fast approaching, the boy must set his grief and anxiety aside to aid his rigid father in ensuring their prized cattle are ready to face the challenging season ahead. But as the land that promised prosperity yields more struggle than gains, their kinship is put to the test.

Canadian actress and filmmaker Sarah Polley investigates certain secrets related to her mother, interviewing a group of family members and friends whose reliability varies depending of their implication in the events, which are remembered in different ways; so a trail of questions remains to be answered, because memory is always changing and the discovery of truth often depends on who is telling the tale.
