The story of Michael Zahs, an eccentric Iowa collector who uncovered five hours of film from the early 1900s that once belonged to Frank Brinton, one of America's most successful barnstorming moving picture exhibitors. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with film subject Michael Zahs and the filmmakers.

Produced by Iowa City filmmakers Tommy Haines, John Richard and Andrew Sherburne, the film premiered in June at the American Film Institute's prestigious AFI Docs festival. Now it's on a nine-city tour of its home state.
