Cormac McCrimmon is a documentary filmmaker and journalist based in Boulder, CO. He’s interested in telling stories that force us to reckon with long-held myths, reimagine our relationship to nature, and capture the beauty of ordinary lives. His current work focuses on underdogs, misfits, and young people. Cormac’s work has taken him from the mule trails of the Colombian jungle to the food stalls of Oaxaca, Mexico; from Class Five whitewater to local food deserts. Cormac speaks Spanish and Portuguese.
