The Braker Brothers are on a mission to use the power of outdoor storytelling to create sustainable change. Eric (22) and Andrew (27) are Maryland-based filmmakers who are just getting warmed up... With only one award-winning credit under their belt, "A Journey Upstream," they don't plan on stopping any time soon.
Phoenix is a heartwarming short documentary that highlights the story of full-time fly-fishing guide, Katie Fiedler Anderson. While the short film glows with themes of motherhood and family, the main goal is to show our viewers that whatever leap they may be deciding to take, if it's the right one, the pain, angst, and general ridiculousness will be worth the sweet trout tugging at the end of their line.
