Cold Brook, which goes into general release in November, was recently screened at the Woodstock Film Festival, where it won the Carpe Diem Andretta Award. Fichtner co-wrote, produced, directed, and stars in the film, which was shot in upstate Buffalo and Cortland. In Fichtner’s words, the film is about “finding friendship, doing the right thing, and learning how far you will go to help a stranger.”
