About this event
Directed by Luke Lorentzen. 103 minutes. Not Rated. In English. PMA Films is delighted to partner with Points North on a trio of screenings November 6–7, featuring highlights from this year’s Camden International Film Festival. Across four seasons, the skilled craftspeople of Maine’s Brooklin Boat Yard meticulously transform planks of Douglas fir, mahogany, and cedar into a 56-foot wooden sailboat—both a fading, time-honored tradition and a delicate business to manage. Sundance award-winning director Luke Lorentzen mirrors their patience, presence, and attention to detail in a reflection on the pride and value of labor that culminates in a breathtaking maiden voyage.
