Echoes of Green Gables
Echoes of Green Gables: Formative Years of L. M. Montgomery
Set in the landscapes that shaped her, this documentary explores the early life of L. M. Montgomery on Prince Edward Island—years marked by loneliness, imagination, and ambition. Like her beloved heroine Anne Shirley, Montgomery grew up with imagination and grit—but the real story was far more turbulent than her fiction. Told entirely in Montgomery’s own words, drawn from her lifelong journals and read by her granddaughter, great-granddaughter, and great-great-granddaughter, this film offers an intimate, intergenerational portrait of the woman behind the myth. Using archival photographs and impressionistic reenactments, the documentary brings to life the private struggles and emotional intensity that shaped a literary legend.
