MacGillivray Freeman Film's "National Parks Adventure 3D" Narrated by Academy Award(R) Winner, Robert Redford Commemorates the U.S. National Park Service's 100-Year Anniversary on the Giant Screen Opening February 12, 2016 at AutoNation IMAX 3D Theater

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL--(Marketwired - January 26, 2016) -  MacGillivray Freeman Film's "National Parks Adventure 3D" takes audiences on the ultimate off-trail adventure into the nation's awe-inspiring great outdoors and untamed wilderness when it arrives in AutoNation IMAX 3D Theater on February 12, 2016. Moviegoers will soar over red rock canyons, hurtle down steep mountain peaks and explore other-worldly realms found within America's most legendary outdoor places. Along the way, the film becomes at once an action-packed celebration of the 100-year anniversary of the National Park Service and a soulful reflection on what wilderness means to us all.

Filmed in more than 30 national parks across the country, this immersive film for IMAX® and giant screen theatres follows world-class mountaineer Conrad Anker, adventure photographer Max Lowe and artist Rachel Pohl as they hike, climb and explore their way across America's spectacularly wild and beautiful places -- including Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, Yosemite and Arches -- revealing a tapestry of natural wonders that will inspire the adventurer in all of us. Captured with IMAX 3D cameras and shown in full glory in giant screen theatres, "National Parks Adventure 3D" celebrates the majesty of our national parks and treasured landscapes and highlights the importance of protecting them. National Parks Adventure was produced in association with Brand USA and presented globally by Expedia, Inc. and Subaru of America, Inc. with major support from the Giant Dome Theater Consortium.

"There are 408 national parks in our country that many families have not been able to explore," says two-time Academy Award®-nominated director Greg MacGillivray. "Our hope is that 'National Parks Adventure 3D' will encourage our audiences to discover the beauty and sanctuary of these American treasures, which belong to every one of us."

"In addition to opening National Parks Adventure 3D at the AutoNation IMAX 3D Theater, we have national conservationist Clyde Butcher scheduled to give presentations on his photography of our national parks and we will open a new permanent exhibit of Butcher's photography that was generously donated by Lisa and Jim Dobson," said Museum President/CEO Kim Cavendish.
