The boundaries of myth and mystery are blurred in this contemporary retelling of
the legend of star-crossed lovers Orpheus and Eurydice.

Initial filming for Granite Orpheus began in 2015 as an experiment in improvisational filmmaking with merely a rough outline for a script, a group of talented friends as cast and crew and an annual community event providing the set and extras for filming. That planned weekend of moviemaking turned into nine busy days as word spread and new talents and resources added themselves to the project. Soon, matters of careers, life (and death) intervened and the project had to be shelved. Now, ten years later, those nine days of raw footage have been transformed into a complete 70-minute film. How those nine days survived and took shape is a story deserving a movie of its own and a testament to the original vision — that Art is a force that will find a way to reveal itself as long as the Artist is willing to endure until the end.
