We are excited to present a new fall/winter virtual film series for your in-home enjoyment. “Fine Features” will showcase our handpicked selections of the most compelling narrative stories, film festival winners, and independent films available to stream only through cinemas - you won’t find them on Netflix or Amazon.
The first installment in our Fine Features Film Series is Once Upon A River, a 2019 film awarded Best Director by the Boston Film Festival and the Bend Film Festival, and Best Narrative Feature by the Gallup Film Festival.
Based on the best-selling novel by Bonnie Jo Campbell, Once Upon A River is the story of Native American teenager Margo Crane in 1970s rural Michigan. After enduring a series of traumas and tragedies, Margo (newcomer Kenadi DelaCerna) sets out on an odyssey on the Stark River in search of her estranged mother. On the water, Margo encounters friends, foes, wonders, and dangers; navigating life on her own, she comes to understand her potential, all while healing the wounds of her past. Written and directed by Haroula Rose, this midwestern gothic Americana story is, in the words of Jane Smiley for The New York Times, “an excellent American parable about the consequences of our favorite ideal, freedom.”
“Haroula Rose’s feature film, Once Upon A River, features stunning performances and camerawork....”
“Once Upon a River—with a tremendous performance from Kenadi DelaCerna as Margo—enchants us in this simple but evocative coming-of-age tale. ”
