IMAX movie tells Ohio’s environmental comeback story from burning river to top-ranked state parks
When you think IMAX, chances are your mind goes to those immersive documentaries that take you inside volcanoes, deep under oceans or to distant planets. Or maybe you envision those widescreen films featuring backstage experiences with iconic rockstars or Hollywood special effects. But, this year, the state of Ohio is using the technology to tell an environmental comeback story closer to home. “Ohio: Wild at Heart” features the state’s top-ranked park system as it highlights wildlife conservation efforts and the restorative power of outdoor recreation. The $2.5 million film is drawing crowds at science museums and heads soon into classrooms.
