Earthrise tells the story of the first image captured of the Earth from space in 1968. Told solely by the Apollo 8 astronauts, the film recounts their experiences and memories and explores the beauty, awe, and grandeur of the Earth against the blackness of space.

This iconic image had a powerful impact on the astronauts and the world, offering a perspective that transcended national, political, and religious boundaries. Told 50 years later, Earthrise compels us to remember this shift and to reflect on the Earth as a shared home.

Wilder Than Wild: Film Screening & Panel Discussion

by

WILDER THAN WILD: Fire, Forests and the Future is a one hour documentary by filmmakers Stephen Most and Kevin White that reveals how fuel build-up and climate change have exposed Western wildlands to large, high intensity wildfires, while greenhouse gases released from these fires contribute to global warming. This vicious cycle jeopardizes our forests and affects us all with extreme weather and more wildfires, some of which are now entering highly populated wildland-urban areas. This screening will be followed by a panel discussion featuring the filmmaker, local officials and fire control experts. The screening is free with donations requested. This event is sponsored by the Dance Palace, KWMR, the Inverness Foundation and the West Marin Rotary Club.
