Kick off the summer travel season with a screening of “Out There: A National Parks Story” at the historic Newtown Theatre on Thursday, June 18.
In 2016, the centennial year of the U.S. National Park Service, a young filmmaker and his childhood friend set off on a 10,000-mile journey 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 becomes a seven-year odyssey, capturing untold stories of those who protect, visit and find healing in the parks.
Through intimate interviews, breathtaking cinematography and a profound original music score, “Out There” uncovers a deeply human portrait of the parks – revealing them as places of reflection, resilience and connection across generations and cultures. A stunning visual tribute and grassroots love letter, the film reimagines what it means to find belonging in the natural world, and the power of public lands to bring us back to ourselves.
