SUMMARY:“Out There: A National Parks Story” film
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, SEPTEMBER 20 AT 2:00PM\n\n\n\nREGULAR ADMISSION PRICES\n\n\n\nPASSES ACCEPTED\n\n\n\n“In the centennial year of the National Park Service\, a young filmmaker and his childhood friend set off on a 10\,000-mile road trip through America’s national parks\, leaving home with little more than a camera and a desire to understand what connects people to these wild places. What begins as a summer road trip in search of awe-inspiring landscapes becomes a seven-year odyssey that uncovers the human stories embedded in those wild places. Along the way\, they meet rangers\, conservationists\, and everyday visitors whose lives have been shaped by the parks. Through personal stories of healing\, transformation\, and connection\, a rich tapestry of the national park experience begins to emerge – one that reflects not just the beauty of the land\, but the spirit of the people who love and protect it. Blending stunning cinematography with archival travelogues\, posters\, and maps\, Out There:  A National Parks Story is both a tribute to the enduring legacy of the parks and a call to recognize the human presence that gives them meaning. It invites us to see these places not just as landscapes\, but as living stories\, reflecting on our own role in their preservation. (Dir. by Brendan Hall\, 2024\, USA\, 75 mins.\, Not Rated)” \n\n\n\n1 HR 15 MIN | NR\n\n\n\nReleased 2024\n\n\n\n\nOut There: A National Parks Story

From migrant farmworker to revolutionary artist\, Luis Valdez changed American culture. In the 1960s\, his El Teatro Campesino performed on flatbed trucks and helped mobilize workers to win the first farmworker union contract. His Zoot Suitwas the first Chicano play on Broadway. Despite critical rejection that killed the show\, he persevered\, creating La Bamba—a blockbuster breakout film that authentically depicted Mexican American life to the world. Now in its 60th year\, El Teatro continues to be a beacon for Latino/a creators. This is the story of an artist who gave voice to the overlooked and opened pathways for generations. Featuring Linda Ronstadt\, Lou Diamond Phillips\, Cheech Marin\, Delores Huerta\, and Edward James Olmos. (Dir. by David Alvadaro\, 2026\, USA\, 92 mins.\, Not Rated)” \n\n\n\n1 HR 32 MIN | NR\n\n\n\nReleased 2026\n\n\n\n\nAmerican Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez
