Join us on Friday, April 3, 2009 at the DMACC Ankeny Campus for three Iowa History Forum presentations:
The Forgotten Nation: Rediscovering the Story of the Ioway
172 years after their forced removal, the Ioway Tribe and their dramatic story have returned to the state that bears their name. This journey through a forgotten chapter of Iowa's Native American history is explored through documentary filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle’s experiences in making and distributing “Lost Nation: The Ioway.”
Heritage and Homicide: Living with the Axe Murder Mystery
Villisca isn’t known as the birthplace of a president. Instead, history handed it the Iowa’s worst mass murder. How does a community define itself in the wake of a tragedy? Documentary filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle discuss the town’s efforts to both avoid and acknowledge the axe murders of 1912.
Preserving the Past: One Hour Documentary Film School
Award-winning filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle use examples from their own historical documentary films to describe the filmmaking process. This “one-hour film school” will show you how to get your Iowa history story from an idea to the silver screen.
Part of a day-long series of over 30 Iowa history presentations, the sessions are free to students and $25 (all-day pass) for others. The event has been organized by Dr. Lisa Ossian.
