As a bilingual region, northern New Brunswick and its mixed culture are not widely depicted in media outside of tourism, and little of the daily goings-on of the region’s peoples or of their continued traumas from early acts of colonialism against the Acadian and Mi’kmaq are discussed in modern film narratives. By tracing the history of colonialism in the Maritimes to modern-day North Shore New Brunswick through research, Acadian cinema, and my own experiences growing up in Bathurst, and using screenwriting and the tools of Slow Cinema, I endeavor to portray what it means to come of age in the North Shore today.v, 109electronicenhttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_f1cf“How People Move” – Coming-of-age in North Shore New Brunswickmaster thesisSnook, EdithJarman, MarkEnglish
