Saffron Robe is a feature documentary that follows a revered Buddhist abbot in the remote northern region of Laos as he navigates the challenges of a sacred life under a communist regime. An ambitious spiritual leader, Abbot Onekeo Sittivong defied convention by establishing a new school for his country’s poor and undereducated children. But something else is happening at this school in a misty forest. The abbot and his fellow saffron-robed monks and young novices are working tirelessly to revitalize ancient Lao Theravada Buddhist practices and education almost lost to history.

Presented as part of Kayenta’s First Fridays and DOCUTAH’s Best of Fest film series.

At 62 years old, Vaughn Shafer comes out of retirement in a bold attempt to reclaim his title as the fastest man on a motorized skateboard. What begins as a comeback story quickly spirals into a powerful journey of perseverance as his crew battles setbacks at the track and the loss of multiple loved ones. More than a film about breaking speed records, Driven By Angels celebrates resilience, friendship, and the people who continue to inspire us long after they’re gone.
