Film Festival Red carpet party
Thursday | October 29th | 6PM
Beginning with a themed Red-Carpet Party Thursday, October 29th at 6PM, this is the event of the fall! The evening will culminate with a special 20th anniversary screening of BUCK, director Cindy Meehl's acclaimed documentary about real-life “horse whisperer” Buck Brannaman. The film returns to Rockport 15 years after its original appearance at the 2011 Rockport Film Festival, where it received the award for Best Documentary Feature. To coincide with the screening of BUCK, this year’s theme is Coastal Cowboy -dress the part - Coastal Cowboy attire encouraged!
