A Working Life

A portrait of Bob Rock, an eighty-four-year-old blacksmith and banjo maker who lives in the Snake Spring Valley near Bedford, Pennsylvania. In more than sixty years of innovative handwork, Rock has made more than 400 farm trailers, 129 cultivators, and nearly 600 banjos. He often recycles discarded materials -- he has crafted several hundred butcher knives and corn cutters from old saw blades and once built a tractor entirely from spare parts. Directed and produced by Ben Levin.
