This remarkable 30-minute story takes the viewer from Wisconsin to the jungles of Papua New Guinea. The film documents the expedition to find the “Marge” plane flown by America’s top fighter pilot, Richard I Bong. The film also highlights the international partnerships that enabled the team to find the plane and the deepening of the friendships that have formed between northern Wisconsin and Madang, Papua New Guinea.

Join us from 3–4 PM for a pre-documentary reception. Following the screening, attendees will hear directly from the people behind the story during a live Q&A panel featuring:
• Justin Taylan, Pacific aircraft recovery researcher
• Briana Fiandt, Richard I Bong Center
• John Gidley, Richard I Bong Center
• Mike O’Connor, author and Richard Bong biographer
