CLEVELAND (December 7, 2023) \u2013 The Cleveland Clinic DOME Theater at Great Lakes Science Center is now showing \u00a0\u201cThe Arctic: Our Last Great Wilderness\u201d. \u00a0Playing December 8, 2023 through February 22, 2024, this show offering guests an amazing glimpse at this special place in the far north of Alaska on the giant screen!<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Arctic: Our Last Great Wilderness\u201d takes viewers to a place that is vast, wild and magical \u2013 where one of Earth\u2019s greatest natural spectacles unfolds. Princess Daazhraii Johnson (Neet’saii Gwich’in) narrates and reveals the land that has sustained her people for untold generations. For the first time on the giant screen, experience a world that has evolved intact and untamed since the beginning of time.<\/p>\n
The 19.6 million acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge are full of life and history. The land is home to hundreds of species of plants, birds, mammals, and fish. It supports Indigenous cultures and has global ecological importance.<\/p>\n
Journey with National Geographic photographer Florian Schulz on his five-year quest to film the elusive 200,000 strong Porcupine caribou herd as it migrates to the Arctic Coastal Plain, one of the longest animal migrations on Earth. Filled with intimate moments featuring polar bears and musk oxen, wolves, grizzlies, golden eagles and more, \u201cThe Arctic: Our Last Great Wilderness\u201d is the first cinematic exploration of a world few have truly seen until now. Experience this special place worth protecting.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a special place. It has been my life\u2019s work to document this last great wilderness with the hope it will be preserved for future generations. There is no better venue to bring the wonders of the Arctic to life than on the giant screen,\u201d said Schulz.<\/p>\n
This public land is at risk, and a companion campaign supported by the Campion Advocacy Fund, a leading champion to preserve the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, will advance awareness of the threat and opportunities to protect this unique land.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe urgency to protect the Arctic Refuge, to defend the sacred, has never been greater,\u201d said Princess Johnson. \u201cLending my voice to this film is lending my spirit to this work which I care so deeply about. The film is filled with wonder and spirit and I feel humbled to do my small part in opening the public\u2019s eyes to the beauty of these lands.\u00a0 When I watch the image of the Porcupine caribou herd, I also feel the spirit of my Ancestors. It\u2019s a deeply emotional sight to behold and I\u2019m grateful that a larger audience might realize why this place is worth protecting.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Arctic: Our Last Great Wilderness\u201d was produced by Terra Mater Factual Studios, and written and directed by veteran producer Myles Connolly and the award-winning Schulz. For showtimes visit GreatScience.com.<\/p>\n
