Summary:
In the 1920s, Jim, Bert and Rose Evans all move from Newfoundland to Brooklyn,
New

By the Rivers of Brooklyn traces the story of the Evans family across two countries and three generations, exploring the hopes, passions and heartbreaks of those who went away and those who stayed behind. By the Rivers of Brooklyn transforms into

New
