We Have an Anchor

Directed by Jem Cohen

An excerpt from a portrait of Cape Breton shot over 10 years. Last presented in New York as a live show in BAM’s 2013 Next Wave series, it’s now reconfigured as a single-channel film. June reflects on their home life in Mabou; Robert tells a dark tale of a neighbor’s dog; New Glasgow antique seller, John Marshall, speaks about their long friendship. — Jem Cohen
