2026 HHM Award Winner
Feature Jury Award - Score/Soundtrack
A one-of-a-kind concert film with nine songs filmed in Cambridge’s top recording studio features the folk duo of Mason Daring and Jeanie Stahl, who have been playing together for over half a century. Along with several of New England’s top musicians, they bring an unparalleled intimacy to their performance. Daring’s other career as a soundtrack composer has led him to score 18 of John Sayles’ films, as well as many other films and TV shows. Together, he and Stahl represent the still-beating heart of New England’s singer-songwriter tradition. Directed by Tim Jackson, himself a local triple threat as a musician, film critic, and actor.
