A compelling story of past and present, Vanish chronicles the "visual preservation" adventures of photographer, Jim Westphalen, as he travels across the country seeking out and creating stunning imagery of America's disappearing rural structures. Equal parts art, history and road-trip. Westphalen races against time and the unrelenting elements to capture the extraordinary beauty of aging barns, one room schoolhouses, grain elevators, prairie churches and the classic structures of our country's rural. Though many of these evocative relics will eventually surrender to the elements, this film captures the passionate people who strive and struggle to save these gems, revealing stories of dreams, loss and hope. A stunning , must see film.
The director will be present for a Q+A after the screening at the Burlington location.
