Melani Wood

Bone Cage

Jamie (Taylor Olson) works a wood processor, clear-cutting for pulp in small-town Nova Scotia.

Adapted from a play by Nova Scotian author Catherine Banks, Bone Cage is an impressive first feature from Halifax actor/filmmaker Taylor Olson that sensitively excavates the tragedy of how young people in rural communities, employed in the destruction of their environment, treat the people they love at the end of their shift.
