Willem Dafoe provides a narration sampled from British mountaineer Robert Macfarlane's acclaimed memoir “Mountains of the Mind” and a classical score from the Australian Chamber Orchestra accompanies this majestic cinematic experience. (NR; 1 hour, 14 minutes) Final screenings Thursday, July 12 at 2 and 7 p.m.
