Join us for an educational screening opportunity. From DreamWorks Animation and Universal comes a new adaptation of a literary sensation, Peter Brown’s beloved, award-winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, The Wild Robot. The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot—ROZZUM unit 7134, “Roz” for short — that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling. A powerful story about the discovery of self, a thrilling examination of the bridge between technology and nature and a moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to all living things. In a world where screens demand our attention and deadlines dictate our days, it’s easy to overlook the wonders of nature. We find ourselves caught in a relentless pursuit of instant gratification, often missing the subtle beauty and wisdom around us.

Director/Writer Chris Sanders and Producer Jeff Hermann are expected to attend.

Rated PG for action/peril and thematic elements.
