Through recorded interviews, shadow puppetry, and campfire storytelling, Lumbar 5, Thoracic 12 tells a Northern father-daughter story about intergenerational divides and a deep need to connect.

Santana Berryman returns to Whitehorse with her show about taking her father on a camping trip. Together, they brave a few nights in the bush in winter, facing cold temperatures, 20 hours of darkness, and a generation of silence between them.
