“On Nova Scotia’s South Shore, where fishing once shaped the communities, new pressures are shifting the landscape. Precipice points the lens at Rose Bay, and up-river, tracing the fragile edge between memory and disappearance, as working-class lives are recast against rising seas and fancy coastal development. Echoes of old home movies, Mi’kmaq tales and present-day restoration (including oyster farming, wetland preservation, woodlot care) interweave into a portrait of resilience. The film, evoking the tone and pace of Brett Story’s The Hottest August (2019) focuses on the intersection between climate change and a community's response to this global emergency.” —WForsyth (Director Lunenburg Doc Fest)
