Donna and Raymond would be the first to admit their 25-year union wasn't perfect. But despite all its various blemishes, their life together works, or at least it did until one frigid November night, in a field just a few miles from home, one reckless act throws their lives into a tailspin. Donna is willing to follow a winding path to peace, and turns to her friends and community for help. Raymond, on the other hand, takes a more bare-knuckled approach to life, and believes he'll solve his own problems, one punch or elbow at a time. A tale of courtship, marriage, grief, joy and a skewed hope for the future, North of Here successfully captures the plight of one family while deftly touching us all.
