Chronicle then produced December, 1917 for GLOBAL Television, an ambitious love story set against the backdrop of the Halifax Explosion. The show aired prime-time on both GLOBAL and the CBC to great critical reaction, was awarded a Bronze Plaque at the Columbus International Film and Video Festival, and received a Gemini Award nomination for Best Dramatic Short Program. Chronicle’s first feature film, Touch & Go, which was pre-sold for Canadian television broadcast to The Movie Network, Movie Central and Showcase Television. The film premiered to sell-out audiences at the Atlantic Film Festival, and is now being distributed worldwide by Cinemavault.
