Third Thursday Movie, April 19, 7 PM.

An elegy to the American West showing the last sheep drive up into Montana’s breathtaking and dangerous Beartooth Mountains. This astonishingly beautiful, yet unsparing film reveals a world in which nature and culture, animals and humans, vulnerability and violence are all intimately meshed.
