Description
An inspiring documentary about Woodstock NY’s Rock Star Meadow.
Directed by Hilary Leitner & Music by Erik Della Penna.
July 10, 2024 – 7-9PM – BKCM Concert Hall
This musical documentary by filmmaker and visual artist, Hilary Leitner, is an intimate portrait that reveals the essence and psychology of a man, 82 year old artist Nick Della Penna, who devoted over 35 years to creating a magical stone monument by hand. This castle-like structure is interwoven with mosaics and sculptures which mirror the state of our world and Nick’s perspective on it. Leitner visually, musically and narratively arranges this film to magnify this exceptional creative blast. After fifty minutes you’ll walk away feeling that you, too, can do anything. Music by award-winning composer, musician and recent Drama Desk Winner, Erik Della Penna. Watch the trailer here!
The film showing will be preceded by a live music performance and after the film. Hillary Leitner and Nick Della Penna will host a Q&A. Tickets for this incredible evening will be available at the door for $15.
