Sienna Films and Streel Films have crew opportunities available on CBC television production The Trickster. First Nation, Métis and Inuit applicants are encouraged to apply.

Preference will be given to residents of northern Ontario – however, applicants may apply from anywhere in Canada. There is potential funding available for travel and accommodations for an out-of-province candidate.

The Trickster, adapted from the Son of a Trickster trilogy of books by award-winning author Eden Robinson (pictured left) and co-created by Michelle Latimer (NSI Drama Prize, pictured right) and Tony Elliott, is a darkly humorous coming-of-age story, a mash-up of dysfunctional family drama and supernatural thriller.
