Running time: 1h 12m
This film is appropriate for ages 16+ due to the use of profanity.
The screening will be introduced by Director Michael Russillo and Assistant Director/Writer Piper Pavelich
ABOUT THE DIRECTOR and WRITER
Director Michael Russillo grew up in Camden and studied film production at Keene State College. Working with his partner, Piper Pavelich, they collaborated on a story that’s deeply personal to them. With this being Michael’s directorial debut and the largest narrative project he’s created, this was a unique experience.
Writer Piper Pavelich, on the other hand, is a writer both professionally, as a journalist, and at heart. Piper, Michael, and their crew started pre-production in the Fall of 2023, with production taking place in the Summer of 2024, mostly in the Mid-Coast Maine area.
Russillo is a partner and co-founder of Room 310 Media, a collection of creatives who aim to bring storytellers’ ideas to life. Rivers Edge is Room 310’s first feature-length film.
