The first ever trailer for Whispers in the Wheat, a movie that was filmed in Brandon and a farmyard in Rossendale, was recently released. The film, written and directed by Alec Chambers of Muddy River Productions, is a story about a "young con-man who gets more than he bargained for when he searches for his late father's final score." Chambers tells bdnmb.ca that he first had the concept for the movie while attending the Vancouver Film School in 2019-2020. Upon returning to Manitoba in March of 2020, he expanded his initial vision for the movie. It was around that time he reached out to Miles Crossman (The Grand Illusion Film Company) who served as the movie's producer. Once a location for filming was established in July, Chambers said things came together really quickly and he basically had 3-weeks to write the final script. A link to the video trailer can be found here. For Crossman the opportunity to work on the project was important for many reasons including building community and creating art. The entire film was recorded from Aug 15-Aug 31 (2020) and production started in March of this year. Approximately 30 people worked on putting the film together. Two of the lead actors are based out of British Columbia while the rest if the cast is entirely from Manitoba. The movie is being submitted for consideration to various film festivals, with an expected release date for later in the fall. For the latest updates, please follow the movie's Facebook page here.

The classic rock sounds of RFM will once again be placed on pause, as the organizers of the event have made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone the planned 2021 festival to 2022. “We continue to consult with government authorities but restrictions and suggested summer guidelines for events in Manitoba are making the planning of the 2021 festival, which was scheduled for July 30, 31, Aug 1, difficult if not impossible,” said Al Logan, President of Rockin’ The Fields of Minnedosa, adding “The safety and comfort level of our patrons, volunteers, artists and staff are some of the driving factors behind the postponement.” Promoter of the event, Rob Waloschuk of Performance Promotions has been juggling artists and schedules since the onslaught of COVID-19 in March of 2020. “It’s been a challenging time for the music industry, but we are overwhelmed by the support of patrons and the local community, which will just make 2022 that much more of a success.” Dates for 2022 are July 29, 30, 31. Organizers are thrilled to announce that Our Lady Peace have reconfirmed and are slated to perform at the 2022 festival. More lineup details will be released in the coming months. All tickets purchased for 2020/21 will be valid for 2022. In the coming weeks, current ticket purchasers will be emailed with ticket roll-over information and exclusive incentives for current ticket holders ONLY, as well as refund options.(RFM Media Release)

Based on ongoing consultations with the Province of Manitoba, Dauphin’s Countryfest has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2021 festival to 2022. “Planning the festival takes well over a year from preparing the site to be home to over 10,000 patrons to coordinating over 1300 volunteers” said President Ann Ransom. “The uncertainty of the right COVID-19 protocols to have in place to ensure the safety of festival goers, just leaves us with no choice but to hold off on welcoming everyone back to the hill this summer.” “Dauphin’s Countryfest has a significant economic impact to the business and volunteer community. We have a responsibility to Dauphin, and the surrounding communities, to bring the festival back in 2022.” said Ransom. “The board and staff are excitedly making big plans for July 1 – 3, 2022.” “Although this isn’t the news anyone wants to hear, we are taking the opportunity to refresh the festival for 2022,” said General Manager Rob Waloschuk, noting some exciting changes are being planned. He continues to work with the province and health authorities and is confident live music events will be a reality soon. “While there may not be a festival as we know it this year, we are currently planning on presenting some smaller scale ‘Covid Safe’ events throughout the summer, all based on public health guidelines.” The 2022 lineup is in the works, but fans will be happy to know that Johnny Reid has reconfirmed for next years’ festival. Incentives for patrons that leave their tickets in for 2022 include an exclusive performance by Corb Lund, among others. Details on all ticket processes and more exclusive incentives will be going out via email directly to all ticket holders in the next week to ten days.(Countryfest Release)
