ROCK MOVIE

About This Movie

ROCK MOVIE captures a moment in time that feels both raw and reflective. The documentary’s pacing is relaxed, allowing viewers to breathe in the atmosphere of Ridgewood’s community gardens, which sprung to life post-lockdown. The film explores not just the act of gardening but how it’s become a form of healing and connection in the neighborhood. The historical nod to Arbitration Rock adds a rich layer, melding past and present, and the visuals have a certain earthy quality—nothing flashy, just genuine moments of people connecting with the land. It’s those little intimate shots that really stick with you, showcasing the resilience of community spirit in the wake of isolation.

ROCK MOVIE is relatively obscure, with limited distribution primarily through local film festivals and community screenings. As such, copies are hard to come by, making it a unique find for collectors interested in regional documentaries or the effects of COVID-19 on community initiatives. The film captures a specific moment in time, and its focus on both personal and historical narratives offers a distinctive angle that appeals to those seeking depth in their collection.
