Cane Creek Short Film

Cane Creek

A short film based on true events

On a quiet Sunday morning in Cane Creek, Lewis County, Tennessee, a group of masked men stormed a Mormon church service held in the Conder family home.

Four worshippers were shot dead. The mob’s leader was also killed.

After the violence, the attackers returned home to their families. No one was ever prosecuted for the murders.

Based on true events, Cane Creek follows Jack, a participant in the August 10th, 1884 massacre. Told with minimal dialogue and underscored by a haunting 19th-century Appalachian shape-note hymn, Cane Creek is portrays violence, faith, and contradiction.
