A Brief History of Chasing Storms

dir. Curtis Miller
70 min.
Screened with an in-person Q&A with director Curtis Miller

The tornado is both a destructive event and a uniquely American icon, one often fraught with collective tragedy. With wit and humor, this film unfolds like an episodic road movie, raising questions of memory, inequality, colonization, climate change, and disaster capitalism as it examines legacies of weather within this area of the United States dubbed “tornado alley.”
