Synopsis

On the beaches near New York City, Craig Hunter and Ryan Harman construct makeshift shelters from driftwood, sheets, and rubber bands. These forts become personal retreats where the couple sunbathes, relaxes, and listens to music. The 2021 film FORT avoids traditional narrative structure, focusing instead on the act of building these temporary structures. Through their creative process, Hunter and Harman reflect on companionship and the joy found in simple, shared moments by the ocean.
