In early 2020 COVID 19 began to overrun our day-to-day lives. Negativity, fear, and anxiety ran rampant on social media. But poking through all of that were post after post of people doing a simple (if slightly quirky) thing to brighten their neighbours’ days: painting rocks and hiding them around common community walks. “COVID Rocks: A Simple, Feel-Good Story” is a community co-created documentary that paints a portrait of the rocks grassroots initiative, and the impact it had on Calgarians during this global crisis.
