The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again (1979)

Eddington attempts to capture how media is intertwined with the uncomfortable present.

Director and writer, Miles Marti, brilliantly created a film that captures the story of a kid that learns a new reality all within the walls of her classroom. Tears Of Knowing lightly steps into the devastation of loss through a childhood lens, and presents a perspective that is not often acknowledged. Though grief and loss are important aspects, the film also showcases excellent portrayals of trust, innocence, and naivety.

The film illustrates the life of a single who struggles to provide an ideal childhood for her two daughters.

Digger is a smart film, one that takes what could have been a “seen it before” message and gives it new life.
