It was a dark and stormy night, yet film and conservation enthusiasts braved the rainy weather to attend the 6th Annual Wild & Scenic Film Festival at the Silco Theatre Saturday night. The theater was filled to capacity, and some people had to be turned away. The festival attendees enthusiastically received the 14 short films.
