Film Screening: "Apache 8"

Apache 8 (Sande Zeig, 2011, NR, 56 min.) explores the challenging lives of an all-women wildland firefighter crew from the White Mountain Apache Tribe.

For over 30 years these women have been fighting fires in Arizona and throughout the United States, and this documentary tells their story through interviews with four members of the Apache crew.

A Q&A session with director Sande Zeig and Apache 8 crew members Katy Aday, Ericka Hinton, and Nita Quintero will follow the screening.
