if the island could talk

SHORT DOCUMENTARY

A mile off the coast of Boston Harbor lies tiny island, Peddocks. Its tight-knit, working class community has passed down their humble cottages since the 1800's. Now, the state has claimed the island for parkland, and the current generation is the last to own rights to their beloved retreats. This short film takes a sentimental portrait of the islanders' efforts to preserve its traditions, while ruminating its history and inevitable end.
