The Scavengers is the first story produced by Halifax's Transfiction Films.
Written and directed by choreographer/actor and Cory Bowles, the film is a short story about three young boys that find the body of a mermaid in a less travelled cove. The result is a series of events that blends humor and violence in a unique study of children and nature.
The story was the result of a stellar pool of talent, both established and new on the scene, and features a score by Toni Pigot, Adam Burke, and Rebekah Higgs.
John Davies and Cory Bowles are co-producers of The Scavengers, and are the creaters of Transfiction.
Davies, who recently made headlines for writing the Grindhouse winning trailer, Hobo with a Shotgun, started Transfiction with Bowles, with the goals to create new stories, travel well outside the box, and challenge their own imaginations.
