The Howard Frank Mosher Tribute Tour makes a stop at the Latchis Theatre on Sunday, Dec. 3, at 1 p.m., featuring a screening of Jay Craven’s film “Where the Rivers Flow North,” based on Mosher’s novel, and a talk by Craven titled “My Life, So Far, with Howard.”

A beloved Vermont novelist, Mosher died on January 29 of this year. Craven worked closely with the Northeast Kingdom writer since 1985, making five films based on his stories.

Set in 1927 in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom, “Where the Rivers Flow North” tells the story of an old logger, Noel Lord, and his Native American mate Bangor, who face the extinction of their way of life when a local power company plans to build a giant hydro dam that will flood them off their land. Lord and Bangor face emotional and physical challenges as they struggle with the power company, Vermont’s unforgiving terrain, and their own thorny relationship.

“Where the Rivers Flow North” stars Rip Torn, Tantoo Cardinal and Michael J. Fox. KTLA-TV (Los Angeles) praised the film as “possibly the best small picture of 1994.” TV Guide called it “a heartfelt, rustic charmer.” Entertainment Weekly described it as “achingly beautiful.”

Craven will also present the film and his talk on Sunday, Dec. 3, at 6:30 p.m., at Marlboro College’s Whittemore Theater.

Admission is $12 general, free for students and Marlboro College faculty and staff. Tickets are available at the door or at sevendaystickets.co.
