“Patrick and the Whale” will be screened at SAC on April 16 followed by a Zoom Q&A with director Mark Fletcher and cinematographer Patrick Dykstra.
Hamptons Doc Fest, in partnership with the Southampton Arts Center (SAC), will present Docs Equinox, a three-film kick-off celebration of Earth Day week spotlighting “All in for the Aquifer.”
Docs Equinox runs April 14 to 16, and features three compelling documentary films, panel talks, a special “water central” information hub made up of five local environmental groups — Group for the East End, The Nature Conservancy, Peconic Estuary Partnership, Surfrider Foundation and Peconic Bay Keeper — and welcoming cocktail receptions.
The water environment around us, specifically Long Island’s drinking water, is sourced from the unique aquifer positioned right under where we live, work and play. See why we are charged to protect and preserve this vital part of our ecosystem. “All in for the Aquifer” engages the question with film and discussion. No one can survive without water. Don’t miss any of it.
Tickets are $15 ($10 SAC members/$5 students) at hamptonsdocfest.com or southamptonartscenter.org for each day. Southampton Arts Center is at 25 Jobs Lane, Southampton.
