Join us for a screening and discussion of Pare Lorentz’s documentary, The Plow that Broke the Plains (1936), examining the Dust Bowl on the Great Plains. On February 13, 14, and 15, the Central Oregon Symphony will perform portions of the film’s score. Led by Curator of Western History Laura Ferguson, we’ll discuss the style of the film, which greatly influenced artists at the time, as well as Lorentz’s environmental argument.
