Ohio Celebrates National Leadership in Aerospace Industry With Second Annual Aviation Film Festival

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio will celebrate its national leadership in the aerospace industry and honor the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 flight as it presents the Reel Stuff Film Festival, in Dayton, Ohio, at Ohio's National Aviation Hall of Fame.

From March 12-15, The Reel Stuff Film Festival will screen 13 film classics, documentaries, and new features that cinematically celebrate the people, the wonder and the joy of flight. This year's main film will be The Wonder of It All, a 2007 documentary by producer Jeffrey Roth on the Apollo 11 mission. The award-winning film features candid, first-person accounts by Apollo 11's Buzz Aldrin and six fellow Apollo 11 mission moonwalkers.

"Not only does the Reel Stuff Film Festival highlight some of the greatest cinematic depictions of aviation and the American spirit, but it also serves as a historic lesson for our younger generations who may only read about these achievements in text books," says Ron Kaplan, executive director of the National Aviation Hall of Fame. "As the birthplace of aviation, Ohio is proud to host such an enriching experience and celebrate the achievements made by the Apollo 11 flight crew."
