Sundre-filmed series 'Eyes in the Woods' lands 8 Rosie Award nominations

The Calgary-based Numera Films production, shot partly in Sundre and Mountain View County, will compete at the 52nd annual Rosie Awards in November.

Why it matters

The nominations highlight how local filming is boosting the profile and economic activity of the Sundre and Mountain View County region.

A horror series filmed in Sundre and Mountain View County, 'Eyes in the Woods,' has received eight nominations for the 52nd annual Rosie Awards, which recognize achievement in Alberta filmmaking. The awards, presented by the Alberta Media Production Industries Association, take place Nov. 7 in Calgary at the Jubilee Auditorium.

The series, produced by Calgary-based Numera Films, aired on OutTV in fall 2025 and follows sisters Sam and Brooklyn whose week at a family cabin turns unsettling after they spot glowing eyes watching from the trees at night. Nominations include Best Scripted Series or Mini-Series, Best Director, two nods for Best Performance, Female or Nonbinary, Best Screenwriter, Best Editor, Best Original Musical Score and Best Visual Effects.

Morgan Ermter, co-owner of Numera Films and the series' creator and director, said it was important to set the story specifically in Alberta locations like Sundre, Cochrane or Water Valley rather than an unnamed generic setting. The Mountain View Regional Film Office's economic development officer for Sundre said the eight nominations reflect the talent behind the production and that local officials plan to attend the ceremony.

The cast is drawn from across Alberta, and filming took place across several locations spanning Calgary, Mountain View County, Sundre and the Foothills.
