Stream Binghamton Film 'Stationed at Home' on Amazon Prime

Just five months ago, Daniel Masciari took the stage at the annual Building BC Awards to accept the Tourism Trailblazer Award for a film that, at the time, was still a hidden gem. Today, that same film, created with the help of many talented people from Binghamton, can now be streamed at no additional cost by Amazon Prime members across the United States.

Stationed at Home Streams on Amazon Prime

Stationed at Home, an independent film made possible by the heart and spirit of Binghamton, is now available as part of Amazon Prime Video's subscription streaming library. Prime members across the country can stream the entire film at no additional cost.

While many independent films are available only as rentals or purchases, becoming part of Amazon Prime Video's subscription library gives the film exposure to a much broader audience.

How This Binghamton Film Reached Amazon Prime

Stationed at Home was directed by Daniel V. Masciari and produced by Eliza VanCort, who was raised in Ithaca. Its distributor, Freestyle Digital Media, took the film international on July 2. Thirteen days later, on July 15, the Amazon Prime Video news came.

Before that, the film had already reached viewers on Tubi and The Roku Channel, as well as through rental and purchase options on Apple TV and Amazon. Each step widened its audience. This is the widest one yet.

How the Binghamton Community Helped Make the Film

This film isn't the product of a distant studio lot. It's a story rooted right here in Binghamton. Local investors believed in it and invested their own resources, bar owners opened their doors to the crew, welcoming them into their everyday spaces, and countless community members stepped up as extras, generously sharing their time and spirit to bring the story to life.

Binghamton also helped shape the film behind the scenes. Associate Producer Robin Alpaugh, a graduate of SUNY Broome and Binghamton University who has spent years serving the community through local nonprofits, higher education, and New York State government, was part of the production team. Fellow Associate Producer Louis Newman, a lifelong Binghamton area resident and recent Hobart and William Smith College graduate, also helped bring the project to life while working on his first feature film.

Award-Winning Movie Boosts Binghamton's Profile

On February 18, 2026, Masciari walked onto the stage at the Building BC Awards to accept the Tourism Trailblazer Award on the film's behalf. That recognition came months before the film's Amazon Prime debut and reflected what the project had already done to shine a spotlight on Binghamton.

By then, NPR had already called the film "beautiful." Cast and crew members had also walked red carpets in more than one country.

Producer Eliza VanCort on the Movie's Impact on Upstate NY

Eliza VanCort said it feels wonderful to see Binghamton sharing what makes the city and Central New York so special with a wider audience. She credited the number of people in the community who helped make the film, calling the outcome good for everyone involved.

The film itself centers on strangers who find common ground in their shared humanity, a story that took shape in the same city that helped bring it to life.
