This summer, 36 teams of filmmakers across Vermont collaborated to create a remake of the feature film, Cast Away. Armed with a single scene from the original film and whatever equipment they had access to, teams re-interpreted and filmed every iconic moment: the plane crash, the island survival, the birth of Wilson the volleyball, and every scene in between. The final film, an amalgam of animation, live action, found footage, and soundscapes retells the story with a Vermont flair and an awareness of the times we live in. Several scenes were produced by our neighbors in Burlington, and feature some familiar local spots!

View the final result at this socially-distant event co-sponsored by the Media Factory at the Mansfield Barn in Jericho on Sunday October 25th at 6:30pm. Gates open at 5:30pm.
The event is free, with a suggested donation of $10. You can reserve your ticket online here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/124546837945
