The Grey Sauble Conservation Foundation is hosting their 5th annual Earth Film Festival at the Roxy Theatre in Owen Sound on Thursday, May 19, 2022. The theme for this year’s festival highlights the beauty and incredible migration of the monarch butterfly and features the award-winning, Canadian production, “Flight of the Butterflies”. This film is “a natural history epic. It’s a compelling detective story. It’s a scientific adventure at its best.” With stunning visuals of hundreds of millions of monarchs, “Flight of the Butterflies” is a must-see movie.
