Featured Film: Learning to See
Starts 7:30 pm

Learning To See tells the story of photographer Robert Oelman who leaves his psychology career in the early 1990s to pursue photography. He moves from the United States to Colombia and purchases a small farm in the hills. On his journeys through the rain forests of the Amazon Basin, he begins to take striking photographic images of undiscovered insects. After more than twenty years of traveling, searching and photographing, his quest culminates with a New York City gallery show. He also learns that these tiny life forms must continue to survive. They are at the bottom of the mammalian food chain and are critically important to all animal species including mankind. A BZN Film Festival selection.
Preceding the featured film will be a quick screening of the 2019 IWFF film 1000s of Bugs, 100 Islands, 1 Happy Entomologist. A 2019 IWFF selection.
