The Magpie’s Tales - Origins

The Magpie’s Tales now continues in a cinematic visual format.
These short narrative films reimagine the prairie story through image, voice, and landscape

 — bringing memory and history to life in a new medium.

Each episode follows the spirit of the original novel while allowing the land, the silence, 

and the watchful magpie to take on a visual presence of their own. 

Stories change shape as they travel.
In this visual adaptation of The Magpie’s Tales, the prairie, the weather, 

and the watchful magpie are given new voice through image and film.

These episodes do not replace the novel — 

they offer another way of entering the same remembered world.
