“The Mill” is a captivating short documentary that unveils the rich history of the Phillips Brothers Mill, nestled amidst conifer forests in the far northern reaches of the Sierra Nevada. The brothers first erected a water powered mill in 1897. After that mill was destroyed by a flood, they decided to relocate and rebuild using steam engines to power the new mill. For almost a century, this mill has stood the test of time, preserving its legacy through generations.
As “The Mill” unfolds, you’ll witness not just a documentary subject but a living testament to craftsmanship, resilience, and the indomitable spirit of the Phillips family. Their legacy is carried forward by the current generation, dedicated to preserving their heritage.
