Mineral Bar

Directed by Max Devereaux

Mineral Bar is a meditative short film shot on location along the North Fork of the American River in Colfax, California. The film focuses on the natural interplay between rocks and rushing mountain runoff, capturing the hypnotic dance of crystal-clear water as it flows, ripples, and reflects light in ever-changing patterns. Through lingering shots and immersive sound design, the film highlights how the cold Sierra Nevada waters sculpt and animate the riverbed, creating a quiet yet dynamic visual experience.
