ABOUT THE FILM
WESTERN CANADIAN PREMIERE with FILMMAKER Q&A
Starring Noah Reid (Schitt's Creek), Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix), Clark Backo (Letterkenny) and Hudson Williams (Heated Rivalry), the Crave Original mystery thriller is based on Kat Sandler’s acclaimed play and produced by Blink49 Studios and Front Street Pictures.
YAGA follows Rapp (Reid), a private investigator who arrives in the small coastal town of Whittock to investigate the disappearance of a young heir to a powerful fishery, Henry Park (Williams). He soon finds himself at odds with an apprehensive local detective, Carson (Backo), a charismatic university professor with a taste for younger men, Katherine (Moss), and a labyrinth of enigmatic suspects, secret lives and ancient magic.
Filmed on Vancouver Island, YAGA brings a distinctly BC connection to its coastal setting and showcases the region’s screen talent. VHS will screen the first two episodes ahead of the series’ October 23 debut on Crave, followed by a Q&A with special guests.
YAGA is produced by Blink49 Studios and Front Street Pictures in partnership with Crave, co-directors are David Frazee and Rachel Talalay. The series is executive produced by Mackenzie Donaldson, Andrew Miller and Carrie-Anne Moss and produced by Charles Cooper.
