Join the Filmmaker Mixer as we sit down with sibling filmmakers Scout and Max Purdy to explore their heartfelt coming-of-age feature, Pilgrim. With a sharp micro-budget of just $5,000, Scout and Max, along with their father, Doug, crafted a poignant narrative about a 15-year-old named Joe who embarks on a coastal hike after her mother’s death — confronting grief, family bonds, and personal growth along the way. Discover how the father-daughter duo of Doug and Scout Purdy wrote, directed, produced—and even acted—themselves, blending guerilla filmmaking with family storytelling amid breathtaking locations. Tune in for a candid and inspiring conversation about making bold indie films through collaboration and resourcefulness.
