Nestled in Quebec’s beautiful Eastern Townships, the village of Three Pines basks in the tranquil glory of its autumn colours, sitting as a quiet refuge from fast-paced city life. But the blazing woods conceal a dark secret, as the lifeless body of much-loved school teacher Jane Neal is discovered, with an arrow shot straight through her heart, leaving the community to wonder - was this a tragic hunting accident or a devious murder?
 
Now, it’s up to the town’s charismatic Chief Inspector Armand Gamache (Nathaniel Parker) and his team of officers to unearth what happened. As they begin to sift through evidence they discover a host of clandestine personalities in the seemingly placid town and uncover deep seeded betrayal and bitterness running through the quiet village.
 
STILL LIFE stars Nathaniel Parker as “Chief Inspector Armand Gamache”, Anthony Lemke as “Inspector Jean-Guy Beauvoir”, Kate Hewlett as “Clara Morrow” and Gabriel Hogan as “Peter Morrow”.
 
STILL LIFE is produced by PDM Entertainment and Attraction Images, in association with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and with the participation of the Canadian Media Fund, and distributed in the U.S. and internationally by Content Media Corporation.
