For senior producer Lia Grainger, the film industry has been a part of Vancouver's identity for as long as she can remember. Working in the TV and movie business has always been something that just happened to people around her. But here’s the thing — she never had a clear understanding of why Vancouver became the go-to spot in North America, after Los Angeles, to make films and TV, until now. 

Listen in as Grainger traces it all back to one thrilling, one-of-a-kind movie that was shot in Vancouver in the early ‘90s.

Special thanks to James Gray for our theme song music.
