The Crane follows the difficult choices confronting someone who cannot go on being lied to and explores how they carry on in the face of hardship.
It's 1968 and James Anderson's twin brother Dave has just been killed in the Vietnam war. Knowing his turn is next, James turns his back on his family's military legacy, evading the draft and travelling to Newfoundland to fulfill a promise his brother made to a fellow soldier. Unwittingly swept into an intergenerational family secret while on assignment for a St. John's newspaper, James finds something in Newfoundland that could just save his life.
