Canoe Dig It?
TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE!
The first film from Sam Dunning, Canoe Dig It? is a mockumentary comedy that follows a group of disparate competitors as they travel up to a national Freestyle Canoeing competition in Maine. The film is very much akin to Chrisopher Guest's Best in Show and the Documentary Now! series on IFC, while also being a love letter to the state of Maine and canoeing culture. It premiered at Cinequest Film Festival in March of 2025 and toured the country at a variety of festivals, including the Maine Outdoor Film Festival, where it won Best Maine Film.
Sam Dunning is a native Mainer, born in Portland and grew up in Brunswick, Maine before moving to New York City for college, the work as an actor and filmmaker. He has been an actor and filmmaker for over 10 years. This is his first feature directorial debut.
