Synopsis:

After his father passed, Bennett uprooted his idyllic life as a fishing guide to try and get a “real” job in real estate. That plan flops and he spends the summer living on top of his 1990 Cadillac Deville in some of North Americas wealthiest summering locations like Martha’s Vineyard. Strapped for cash, Bennett picks up trash on the beaches to tie flies for fishing, and enters into a fishing tournament. The simple joys of life are exactly that: simple, and often free.

Thoughts from the filmmaker:

Every time you see Bennett wearing a yellow rain slicker suit, I am wearing one too. We were matching during the entire film. We made sure to fully suit up during every ferry ride and visit the captain together to see if he needed any help steering the ship. Every captain declined.
