Synopsis: Folk musicians Still on the Hill features a unique brand of Arkansas "folkgrass." The accomplished multi-instrumental and 2010 Governor’s Arts Award-winning duo of Kelly Mullhollan and Donna Stjerna has produced seven albums since 2001. Their repertoire is primarily original compositions interspersed with new arrangements of traditional songs.

OZARK: A CELBRATION IN SONG was born out of their travels in the Ozarks, collecting song ideas from their audiences during performances. Mullhollan and Stjerna write about the amazing people and places they know and love with the belief that the unsung heroes of the Ozarks best reflect what makes the hills distinctive. The documentary includes the making of Sill on the Hill's CD of the same name, interviews with Ozark legends, and songs from the album featured as music videos. Among the legends featured is “Mug Tree Lady” about Batesville resident Clara Byler who has hung over 700 mugs from a tree as a way of dealing with the tragic loss of her son.
