The Bonackers, A Screening And Q&A With Director Joanne Friedland Roberts

THE BONACKERS is the evolving story of the women and men whose families have fished and farmed the land and seas of the East End of Long Island for almost 400 years. Struggling to survive in the midst of the mansion-filled Hamptons, they may well be the last of their kind. Produced and directed by Joanne Friedland Roberts, this 60-minute documentary introduces us to the descendants of East Hampton’s first European settlers, who share their history, traditions, wisdom, and hopes for the future on their boats, bays, and pick-up trucks, and in their fields, farms, and homes.
