Out There: A National Parks Story
April 30 - May 5 - May 7
Out There: A National Parks Story is a feature-length documentary created to share wonder, stewardship, and connection within our public lands. The film follows two childhood friends taking a 10,000 mile road trip through the U.S. national parks to tell stories of the incredible people they meet along the way. The project was created over the course of seven years by filmmaker Brendan Hall and educator Anthony Blake.
Out There will be screened in Boise, Hailey, and Twin Falls with post-film discussions with Brendan Hall. In Boise and Twin Falls, film score composer Elizabeth PW will perform live music before the film.
