THIS MONTH: We are featuring two (2) amazing documentary films: Steadfast, a film from 2012 along with The Butterfly People, produced in late 2023. Both films were directed by Greg Fish a Joplin native.
Steadfast - On May 22, 2011 one of the most destructive tornadoes in United States history ripped through the heart of the city of Joplin, Missouri. Several residents share their experiences of that fateful day and the days to follow. Through a surge of volunteers and a determined spirit, Joplin has rebuilt in an unprecedented way to now exhibit a higher population and more businesses than before the storm. (59 minutes)
The Butterfly Peiople - “The Butterfly People” is an investigation into the phenomenon that took place in the Joplin Tornado of 2011, where many children reported sightings of what they described as butterflies, which helped them in some way. The documentary involves third-person and first-person accounts, as well as some angel expert opinions. What does all of this mean? That is for you to decide! (58 Minutes)
Both films directed by Gregory Fish, a Joplin native. The Butterfly People was co-produced with Great Wonders Productions.
Doors open 30 minutes ahead of time
