POLSON — The documentary feature film “Open Field,” which provides a hard hitting inside look inside the world of women’s tackle football and features NFL greats who have supported them, including Kyle Shanahan, head coach of the San Francisco 49ers, and Pittsburgh Steelers Hall of Famer, Franco Harris. Open Field tells the story of the women who leave everything on the field in their drive for greatness, earning recognition and respect. Shot on location over the course of six years, with full access to practice sessions, games, private conversations in locker rooms, and off-the field activities, including three world championships with Team USA. Open Field screens at 6 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 28. (Times are subject to change, so check the FLICPolson.com website the week of the festival for the most current screening and special events information.)

News break: New light fixtures and low wattage LED lamps have been installed throughout the building. This new LED technology will improve visibility, color quality, and significantly lower our electric bill. Come in and see the difference. This upgrade was partially supported through energy savings programs of Mission Valley Power. It’s going to be a brighter day at the Senior Center.
