"Sweetland" is a 2023 Canadian drama film, directed by Christian Sparkes. Adapted from the novel of the same name by Michael Crummey, the film stars Mark Lewis Jones as Moses, a retired fisherman who refuses to leave the isolated Newfoundland and Labrador outport town of Sweetland when the provincial government launches a resettlement initiative. Following the sold-out event with Crummey and Sparkes at last July's Lakefield Literary Festival, many festival-goers asked if a screening of the movie could be arranged. Following the screening, there will be a moderated Q&A with the director, joining via Zoom from Newfoundland. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Cash bar.
