By way of newspaper dispatches, diaries, short stories and photographs, a multi-layered family saga spanning a hundred years is told through the pages of The Sentinel.
Beginning in 1884 in a village in the Eastern Townships, Québec, with a printing press that spins out fifty pages an hour; and ending three generations later in a television studio which broadcasts around the world, The Sentinel is the story of the Lloyd-Craigs, a family of journalists, photographers and artists who go to any length in pursuit of a story.
From the wilderness of Lac Mégantic to the Parisian underground, through two world wars and the Russian Revolution, enduring prisons and insane asylums, hockey arenas and train stations, they write not as objective casual observers but as active participants in the events. Theirs is a new journalism, one that requires sacrifice, courage, and a sense of adventure that demands they follow the story wherever it may lead.
