The Cinema Columbus festival presents the Columbus premiere of a new Ohio-made documentary.

Mounting pressures—including an unsolved family murder—test a close-knit rural community in the new documentary This is Pike County. Shot by director Laura Paglin, who lived at the local budget motel, the film lingers on what it means to come of age in a place left behind. (78 mins., DCP)
