The GI Film Festival is proud to present a Cinematic Salute to the Troops, in select cinemas nationwide for an extraordinary one-night event! This April 7th showcase is the first time Fathom Events has ever screened a military themed show and if there is enough interest, they will screen even more positive military stories.
Hosted by actor and comedian Jamie Kaler, this incredible event will feature two true stories of bravery, integrity and leadership in the inspiring Wounded Warrior story CLIMB and the WW2 special operations thriller THE REAL INGLORIOUS BASTARDS, plus celebrity commentary from First Lady Michelle Obama, Dr. Jill Biden, Gary Sinise, Adam Driver, Danny Trejo and more!
After both features, catch a behind-the-scenes look into GI Film Festival DC X, including a sneak peek at the military apocalyptic zombie movie Range 15 which premieres at GIFF X in DC this May. Range 15 stars William Shatner, Sean Astin and Danny Trejo and was produced and directed by military veterans!
Gather friends and family as we all come together to honor the warrior spirit!
