A mysterious riddle pulls two Brooklynites into the wilderness to rescue a brother from his obsessive hunt for a fabled family treasure. What they won't admit, even to themselves, is that they too harbor a shred of hope that the treasure might be out there.
Produced safely during the midst of the pandemic in a 1930’s log cabin on the Appalachian Trail with an on-set cast/crew of six people, Here For Us is as DIY as it is ambitious. Shot by a first-time, female DP with a female, BIPOC and Queer led cast, it is a deeply personal project about family, both blood and chosen, made by a small family of friends. Our process and purpose were inextricably linked and it is evident in the result.
