The Atlin Arts and Music Festival is a gem of a festival in the wilds of Northern British Columbia and a two-or-three-hour drive from Whitehorse, Yukon, where Last Stop for Miles was shot. I’ve been to the Festival twice and both times was struck by the number of families attending and the real sense of community and connection between all the people crowded together in that little town nestled beneath the shimmering mountains.
The Yukon Film Society usually shows a number of films in Atlin during the festival and this year Last Stop for Miles will get a screening on July 9th at 10 pm. I wish I could be there to see it, to share in the fun times and the super-energy of performers and punters communing in one of the prettiest spots in the North.
