Film Screening: The Love Bugs
Join us for a special public screening of the film The Love Bugs, a documentary film about the love of nature and the nature of love.
For over 60 years, Charlie and Lois O’Brien traveled to more than 67 countries quietly amassing the world’s largest private insect collection; an entomological game-changer of 1.25 million specimens. The two renowned married entomologists now grapple with the advancement of the Parkinson’s disease that afflicts Charlie. But Charlie and Lois know they need to keep fighting for the value of scientific knowledge, so they turn to their insects for a little help. This humorous and poignant documentary explores the love of nature and the nature of love and what it means to devote oneself to both. Presented by Great Falls Studios and the film's local illustrator Jenny Nichols.
