Winner of the Best Cinematography Award at the Sundance Film Festival, the eloquent historical drama Color of a Brisk and Leaping Day has been acclaimed as a film touched with greatness. John Lee, grandson to one of the many Chinese railroad laborers who helped forge a new America, holds idealistic visions of saving a Yosemite Valley short-line train. With the help of long-time rail employees, John makes it his year-long mission to turn the railroad around, while simultaneously courting a beautiful Native American park guide. A young man obsessed with trains and railroads tries to revive the defunct Yosemite Valley Railway.
