The anticipated debut of intense drama Crown and Anchor is set for the annual Nickel Independent Film Festival on June 22nd.

Directed by Andrew Rowe and starring Michael Rowe, Matt Wells and the iconic Andy Jones, the production was set in and filmed in St. John’s, and will make its Canadian debut at Nickel for one night only.

James Downey is the product of an abusive alcoholic father. He’s living a disciplined, straight edge lifestyle as a result, while his cousin Danny drowns his own trauma with drugs and booze. When their lives intersect they each begin to unravel as the past returns with violent and tragic consequences. Crown and Anchor is a slow-burning intense drama set in St. John’s, Newfoundland.
