The Floaters

A struggling musician Nomi accepts a last-resort job from her overachiever best friend Mara: mentoring misfit campers, the "Floaters," at their childhood Jewish summer camp along the Delaware River near the northeast Pennsylvania border and New York’s southwestern edges of the Catskills.

 

Note: Locally filmed in along the Delaware River in Barryville, NY.

 

Reviews:

"Within its first few frames, The Floaters is effortlessly likable." – B. Johnson, Film Focus

 

"The Floaters is more than just a comedy-it's a love letter to summer camp, friendship, and the resilience it takes to chase your dreams." -- Paul Salfen, AMFM Magazine

 

Comedy/USA/Locally Filmed/101m. Directed by Rachel Israel.
