Here's another great opportunity to meet up, make some new friends, and see this amazing movie. It being the holiday season, some won't be able to attend the Dec 1st Holiday meet up so I thought this might be another great opportunity.
I definitely want to see this movie, and the price (free) is definitely doable.
Let me know below if you want to attend and we can make plans to meet up 1/2 hour before showtime.
Here's a trailer for this Sundance Film Festival, 2011 award winning show:

When National Geographic photographer James Balog asked, “How can one take a picture of climate change?” his attention was immediately drawn to ice. Soon he was asked to do a cover story on glaciers that became the most popular and well-read piece in the magazine during the last five years. But for Balog, that story marked the beginning of a much larger and longer-term project that would reach epic proportions.
In this breathtakingly beautiful documentary, filmmaker Jeff Orlowski follows the indomitable photographer as he brings to life the Extreme Ice Survey (EIS)—a massive photography project that placed 30 cameras across three continents to gather visual evidence of the Earth’s melting ice. Chasing Ice tells the story of a visionary artist who, in facing his own mortality, bequeaths the magic of photography and the adventure of the expedition to a new generation and captures the most visible sign of climate change on the planet today.
