Great Lakes IMAX Film

The Indiana Port Commission has agreed to co-sponsor a new IMAX film on the Great Lakes. Members of the commission, the governing board for the Ports of Indiana, agreed to participate in the project and will have the right to host screenings of the large-format film.

The film, currently in production by Science North Large Format Films of Sudbury, Ontario, and scheduled for release in spring 2008, will follow several interlocking stories, including that of maritime commerce and the ships that move cargo through the waterways.

Geography, ecology, science and history will be featured, as well as information on the Americans and Canadians who live on the Great Lakes.

The 40-minute film will have an international release, with special emphasis placed on showing the movie on IMAX screens in the Great Lakes region. Producers have not yet decided whether to include footage of Indiana ports in the film.
