The award winning film is “part verite travelogue, part expose, part mystery, part bluegrass banjo meltdown and part showdown.”

Part of the First Thursday Free Film Series at the Mason Library on Main Street in Great Barrington. The film will start at 7pm in the downstairs community room. Admission is free and open to the public. A discussion will follow.
