1691, Salem, New England: la diciassettenne Lois Barclay sbarca dalla Redemption, il vascello che l'ha portata dal Vecchio al Nuovo Mondo. Dietro di sé, l'Inghilterra, il ricordo dei genitori e un amore; davanti a sé la famiglia dello zio che non ha mai visto e tante incognite.

Siamo in una sperduta e malmessa fattoria tra le nevi del New England. Il proprietario, Ethan Frome, è un uomo imponente dal carattere schivo e introverso e dal corpo irrimediabilmente rovinato.

We listen in to their innermost thoughts, feelings and motivations as they break the fourth wall.

This 148-day journey began on Darcy Gaechter’s 35th birthday. She sold her successful outdoor adventure business, upsetting her partner and boyfriend of 12 years and getting them both fired in the process. The emotional waters that would fester and erupt on the ensuing journey were often more challenging to navigate than the mighty river itself. With blistering lips and irradiated fingernails, Darcy would tackle raging Class Five whitewater for 25 days straight, barely surviving a dynamite-filled canyon being prepared for a new hydroelectric plant.
