East Hampton - The SummerDocs series, a program of The Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) presented "Buck," this year's Sundance Film Festival Audience Award winner and IFC Films release, at Guild Hall in East Hampton on Saturday, June 4.

James Lipton was the special guest host for the evening's events. Lipton is the host of "Inside the Actors Studio" on Bravo.

A truly American story about an unsung hero, "Buck" is about an ordinary man who has made an extraordinary life despite tremendous odds. His transformation of the horror of his youth into the gentleness of his adulthood in his treatment of horses is truly inspiring. The film opens June 17.
