Film Talk: Water in the Desert

Andie Madsen will be presenting her film, “Water in the Desert,” at the Josephy Center. Wednesday September 27th @ 7pm. Doors open at 6:30pm. Entry by donation. The desert is in Morocco, and the film follows archeologists and contemporary Moroccans as they explore a very old way of moving water in hot, harsh climates.

Andie, who grew up here and once worked as an intern in the Josephy Library, is in the MFA program in film at Montana State University. She will talk some about that program, and show “Desert” (14 min.) and the short films “A Landlocked Ocean” (4 min.) by Riley Young and “Youth Salmon Protectors” (6 min.) by Leif Everson, both part of the Montana State University MFA program.
