Rutabaga, Kokatat, Esquif and Cackle TV Productions
are pleased to present the world premiere of Justine
Crugenven’s new film: This is Canoeing.
Justine will introduce her new film at Rutabaga’s premiere
party at the High Noon Saloon on Saturday, March 13 at 8
pm. She’ll highlight 60 minutes of the most dramatic, high
adventure footage. As an added treat on Sunday, Justine will
present two speaker sessions in which she’ll talk about the
making of the film and showcase additional clips from the
film.
This is Canoeing is a long overdue celebration of the single
blade, showcasing some of canoeing’s most talented paddlers,
exploring wilderness & running challenging whitewater. This
double-disc set contains three hours of stunning high definition
footage. Twelve individual chapters tell the stories of a
birchbark canoe journey, a northern wilderness trip, a father
and son paddling journey, a voyageur adventure, open canoe
slalom, incredible whitewater canoeing, and more. Disc One
focuses on three wilderness journeys. The other disc contains
shorter segments about inspirational and influential paddlers,
plus two whitewater features.
This is Canoeing is produced by Justine Curgenven, an
award winning adventure filmmaker, expedition sea kayaker &
all round adventurer. Her documentaries have been shown
on the BBC and National Geographic and have won her
multiple awards at film festivals including Banff, Kendal &
the Reel Film Festival. Her entertaining DVDs, This is the Sea
(Volumes 1 through 4) have inspired thousands of people to
take to the water. Rutabaga is excited that Justine is returning
to Canoecopia and invite you to join us at the High Noon
Saloon and at the show to be the very first to see what will
surely become a classic DVD.
