It's something Milwaukee Film started last year, obviously, if it's the second annual.
But this is a great way to experience a variety of true stories and perspectives of all kinds; science, politics, space travel, sexuality, social issues, creativity.
Sometimes you think a documentary might be a little dry or might be just a biography.
I wanted to bring it up today because it's a full day at the Oriental Theater, and also the Downer Theater screens.
It's called Odyssey, which is a great name for films this year, isn't it? [laughs]
This is all about, of course, space travel, but it is through the lens of astronaut Jim Lovell and his personal experience as a framework for really exploring and understanding the risk, the sacrifice, and what I think is so impressive, the teamwork behind space travel, especially the Apollo missions.
And this documentary has been using, and went through 2,500 hours of archival materials, and you're gonna see footage that has rarely been seen in this Odyssey film.
