The MOVEMENT ~ ONE MAN JOINS AN UPRISING narrated by Robert Redfor and Warren Miller

admin — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 17:47:10 +0000

Make A Hero Foundation has selected MAS to be the recipient of this event!
Now we need to spread the word. Invite everyone you know, even invite people you don't know. Robert Redford says "The idea of working on a project that involves Warren Miller and his son Kurt was very appealing to me. The Warren Miller movies have defined the skiing culture for over sixty years and Warren's ski movies were part of what drove me to make Downhill Racer. The mountain can be tough to access even for the able-bodied. This project tells the stories of five people from all walks of life who found a way to experience a freedom they'd been told was impossible. They are an inspirations."

Don't miss this film. It will shown at Royal Oaks Music Theater on Nov. 12th at 7pm. General admission is $10. VIP reception is $50. The VIP reception is from 5:30-6:30pm. Doors open at 6:30 and the film will start at 7:00pm. To get tickets you can call the box office at 248-399-2980x3 or order online at: royaloakmusictheatre.com
