Monumental

I would like to point the blog's attention to the Global Peace Film Festival, taking in place in Orlando and on the Rollins College Campus in late September. At this festival, a film named "Monumental" will premiere on Friday, Sept. 28 at the Orlando Science Center. The film documents the life of David Brower: outdoorsman, environmentalist, and American hero. Brower founded the Sierra Club among various other natoinwide organizations, and was a decorated veteran of the Second World War. Much of the movie includes footage shot by Brower himself, including what will prove to be gripping action sequences taking place on rafting trips and training atop the mountains of Colorado. Brower's actions inspired Americans to appreciate the natural world around them and his influence will last through his organizations and this film.
