Doc Stories: The Bend in the River + Divers @ 7:30 PM

Director of The Bend in the River, Robb Moss will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A.

Robb Moss continues his longitudinal personal filmmaking with his exquisitely crafted final film in the River trilogy. For over forty years, Moss has followed the lives of dear friends, initially captured in youthful, nude exuberance during a multi‑week rafting trip in Riverdogs(1982), and later in The Same River Twice (Festival 2003). Moss reunites once more with these kindred spirits and deftly weaves together footage of their present lives with moments from the earlier films to craft a humorous meditation on memory, aging, and friendship. The Bend in the River is both a companion piece and compendium, asking viewers to consider how one navigates toward a future with fewer illusions about permanence. – Jessie Fairbanks

This film will be preceded by the short film Divers, directed by Geordie Wood (USA 2025, 7 min).
This mesmerizing presentation of high divers is an ode to the human body in motion.
