Our most recent film

Good News! Our most recent long form documentary film To Protect and Preserve, Historic Flat Rock’s Legacy to Keep is completed and ready for screening.

As filmmakers whose passion is archival, artful storytelling, this trailer showcases how we create films about people, places and times.

The Film’s synopsis: In 1966, President LBJ signed The National Historic Preservation Act. Subsequently, Historic Flat Rock, Inc. was formed in 1968 by citizens to “Protect and Preserve” Flat Rock, North Carolina’s History. Our film opens in the lands of the Cherokee, followed by the Early Explorers, First Settlers, Rice Planters, Enslaved and Freedmen, impacting transgenerational descendant lives to this day. Historic Flat Rock has become the largest Historic District in the state of North Carolina due to the efforts of HFR, Inc.’s historic preservationists, and its members.

“To Protect and Preserve”, a two hour long form historical documentary film, is the legacy about Historic Flat Rock, North Carolina. This archivally rich film includes photos, maps, blueprints, literature, art, and vintage footage from diverse repositories. It’s designed to educate, entertain, and inspire all ages and demographics through the unveiling of its unique and hidden history as a small American village established in 1807 in the mountains of Western North Carolina. We thank you.
