The Distance tells the story of two Swiss immigrants, Thomas and Wilbert, who arrive in British Columbia's Kootenay region in the early 1900s, lured by promises of adventure and prosperity. Their dream soon fades, giving way to the harsh realities of pioneer life. The challenges are relentless-gruelling labour, isolation, and a wilderness as unforgiving as it is breathtaking.
As they build families and try to adapt to their harsh new reality, simmering tensions and hidden betrayals begin to surface. The mounting animosity between them culminates in an explosive act of violence that shocks everyone around them. The trial that follows captivates the close-knit community, dividing neighbours and friends as they struggle to come to terms with the events.
Set against the majestic backdrop of southeastern British Columbia, The Distance is a tale of ambition, betrayal, and the lengths people will go to for justice.
