Da Vinci's Inquest (1998)
Da Vinci's Inquest TV Series
Da Vinci's Inquest was loosely based on the real life experiences of Larry Campbell, the former chief coroner of Vancouver, British Columbia, who was elected mayor of that city in 2002. The part of Da Vinci, however, was written specifically for actor Nicholas Campbell. Elements of the series story lines were also taken from sociopolitical issues faced by the real-life Vancouver, such as the plight of the homeless, the controversy over a designated injection site for drug users, the idea of establishing a red light district, and the disappearance of homeless women and sex workers-similar to the case of Robert Pickton.
The Life (2004)
Vancouver's Downtown East-side
This TV movie "The Life" brings reality of what really takes place 24 hours a day on the downtown east-side of Vancouver's city streets and back allies with people who struggle with drug addiction. Creator and producer Chris Haddock's TV series 'Da Vinci's Inquest' has quite an influence and a similar spin off in this TV movie. Based upon these true events there are police officers that are actually still down there walking the beat reaching out to those less fortunate helping the vulnerable, busting and arresting the drug dealers. Great cast and crew in producing and directing this film. A must watch! fmovies.org/watch/yGDQ0wd6-the-life.html
A very compelling touching and moving film.
