Two to a Blanket, Feet to the Fire

.

Two to a Blanket, Feet to the Fire places one of the only existing pieces of archival film documenting the huge winter work bunkhouses once common in Eastern Canada housing two dozen seasonal timber workers next to that of a gathering of Faeries on May Day. Both groups find platonic intimacy and jouissance on the same plot of land, centuries apart.
