Synopsis
A Fervent Pull is a locally produced documentary series that introduces three extraordinary Albert County residents whose unwavering commitment to a passion has defined their lives. Featuring tidal bore surfer Melvin Perez, Hillsborough’s artistic portrait photographer Danica Sherry, and long-time Dobson Trail volunteer Rodney Steeves, the series is testament to the fascinating people who often lay somewhat hidden as members of Canada’s lesser known communities; those from sleepy villages and tucked away towns. But from these underrated places often come the most intriguing people. And the greatest stories.
A Fervent Pull is directed and produced by filmmaker Colleen Furlotte and co-produced by musician/audio engineer John Maher. Riverview cameraman Wes Perry rounds out the tiny three person crew.

Captured by Light
Fifteen years ago a new mother from a small village in New Brunswick picked up a camera. Working with natural light in a style reminiscent of a Vermeer painting, she began to lull us into another world. One where time stands still. Where history seeps in and the mundane bumps up against the unusual. Here everyday objects morph into dramatic costume accessories. Here children whisper and reality blurs. Here photography is poetry. Here quite simply - there is magic. Danica Sherry is an award-winning artistic portrait photographer whose signature creations have been exhibited internationally and featured in publications such as Vogue Italia.
