Where the Rope Ends is a documentary film about Nichole Doane’s life and her lifesaving/lifechanging rescue by SCVSAR. Since 2017, Nichole and Film Director Baylee Sinner have spent many hundreds of hours making this film, with the end goal to support not only SCVSAR, but Search and Rescue organizations nationwide.

More than 30 SAR events were held across the country and into Canada, raising tens of thousands of dollars and attracting numerous new volunteers. 100% of the proceeds went directly to the SAR teams that participated.

• Atlanta Documentary Film Festival • WorldFest-Houston (Silver Remi Award Winner) • Sun Valley Film Festival • Utah Film Festival (nominated Best Documentary) • No Man’s Land Film Festival • Spokane International Film Festival (Spiffy Award for Best Northwest Feature) • Poppy Jasper International Film Festival (Best Documentary Feature Film) • Las Vegas International Film Festival (nominated Best Documentary) • Los Angeles Documentary Film Festival (Winner of Best Feature Film)
