From Chris Patterson and Jim Klug – the filmmakers who created the highly acclaimed movies DRIFT and RISE comes CONNECT, the most ambitious, large-scale fly fishing film ever made.  Hosted by Colorado TU’s ‘The Greenbacks,’ this film makes its Colorado debut on Thursday, October 20th at 7pm at the Oriental Theatre in Denver with 100% of proceeds benefiting native trout restoration in Colorado.

This event is expected to sell out. Click here to buy your tickets now.

About the film

Continuing in the tradition of the multisegment, multi-story format that Confluence Films has become known for, CONNECT introduces a number of new locations, exotic species, and compelling characters that epitomize and exemplify the sport of fly fishing. Shot on location in Japan, Yellowstone National Park, the Yukon Drainage of Alaska, the flats of Cuba, the coast of Maine, and in the wilds of Tanzania, Africa, this feature length movie will once again transport viewers around the world in search of new waters and exhilarating travel experiences. CONNECT features well-known anglers Greg Vincent, Jeff Currier, Jimmy Bartschi, Craig Mathews, Masa Katsumata, Brian Porter, and Captain Eric Wallace, and more than a dozen

different fish species, both freshwater and saltwater. As with DRIFT and RISE before, the cinematography, sound, and feel of CONNECT come together in a visual masterpiece that promises to re-set the bar for fly fishing films.

100% of the proceeds for this event will benefit the Greenbacks and Colorado Trout Unlimited.

Tickets for the event will be $12. Please plan on buying your tickets early as we expect this event to sell out quickly. We will have a round of great prizes to raffle off and some quality beverages to enjoy. If you plan on participating in the raffle bring some cash, we can’t accept credit cards for raffle items.
