A new film features Bowen Island - along with several of those who call it home - as its main characters. Re: Uniting, from writer and director Laura Adkin, released in theatres earlier this year. In addition to being filmed almost entirely on the island, the movie also stars several Bowen actors. Together, the ensemble cast film follows college friends as they gather for their 25 year reunion and examine how life has gone for each of them over the decades. Adkin, who grew up in Vancouver, was always destined for a career in film, something she knew since her first Christmas play at preschool. “I still remember to this day standing out on the stage and looking out at all the people and thinking, Oh I really like this a lot,” she says.
