In the small town of Midland, NC, Martin Hill has been collecting the artistic tools of master filmmakers. His story is one of passion and preservation, obsession and compulsion, expectation and disappointment. In "Martin Hill: Camera Man," Hock takes a six year journey with Martin through his dilapidated bowling alley, where he buys, houses and hoards an array of historic film equipment. His priceless treasures include classic motion picture cameras that were used to create some of Hollywood's most iconic movies including "Star Wars," "Gone with the Wind," "Lawrence of Arabia" and "The Ten Commandments".
