‘Burden of Truth‘ is a legal drama series with a premise that packs tons of legal intrigue and family drama. The show revolves around an attorney named Joanna Chang, who returns to her hometown, Millwood, to represent a pharmaceutical company. A few girls who have fallen ill have associated their illness with a vaccine developed by the pharmaceutical company. After some time, however, Chang has a change of heart and chooses to represent the girls as she suspects something fishy. This move pits her against some powerful people of Millwood as well as her own father.
Where is Burden of Truth Filmed?
As mentioned earlier, the story of ‘Burden of Truth’ is set in the town of Millwood. The intended tone of the series is to create a small-town setting wherein each character has its own complex motif. Hence, the small-town setting is extremely integral to the series. That is the reason several viewers would have wondered where the show has been filmed.
Winnipeg, Manitoba
Unsurprisingly, filming for ‘Burden of Truth’ is entirely carried out in Canada. The series is shot in the province of Manitoba. The fictional town of Millwood is represented using Selkirk and Sanford in Manitoba. However, a large chunk of the filming is also carried out in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Have a look at the following Instagram post, which shows how filming was carried out in Winnipeg.
