Atwood Stories on DVD
Sixty-five-year-old Lois compulsively collects landscape paintings, but to her family’s incomprehension, has never ventured anywhere near real wilderness. A new painting sends her back to the day when young Lucy first steps out of her chauffer-driven car at summer camp. Lucy is rebellious, sophisticated and worldly; by the end of that summer, Lois and Lucy are inseparable. Several years later, as veterans, they embark on the camp’s ritual canoe trip. In a moment which Lois has contemplated for over fifty years, Lucy silently and inexplicably disappears from somewhere near the edge of a cliff, never to be seen again. Lois’ life is irrevocably altered; all these years later, she gazes into these paintings as if her young friend might mysteriously re-emerge from deep within the wilderness they depict. |
