Big Buffalo Golden Gals
Join us in a big yellow raft as we explore the iconic Buffalo National River, the first national river in the United States, with four cousins who grew up along the majestic stream. One hundred and eighty-five years after their family settled this area, these tough Ozark women ages 73-83 take us on an adventure of a lifetime, telling stories and reminiscing about days gone by. In “Big Buffalo Golden Gals” we invite you to hop in the raft and enjoy a different perspective, the women’s side of life along the river. Often in our culture, (Appalachian and Ozark) the men’s stories are well documented and have been the only history shared over time. We hope you enjoy our documentary of how life was experienced by these amazing women as they share their personal stories and memories of days gone by.

Misty Langdon has lived her life on the homestead settled by her mother's family in the 1800's. As a small child she enjoyed stories of the old times passed down by her family and neighbors. Her love of home, the Buffalo River, has been inspiration for many forms of creativity. Her latest, the Remnants Project, showcases her love of the people, their history, homesteads & family photos, to create an historical account of life on the Buffalo River before it became the nation's first national river. Big Buffalo Golden Gals is the first production for the Remnants Project, being accepted into and securing a win for Best Documentary 2023 at the Roger's Short Film Festival.
