Wichita Art Museum and Tallgrass Film Festival join together for the 7th annual outdoor movie night. "Moonrise Kingdom" is the seventh film directed by two-time Academy Award nominated filmmaker Wes Anderson. Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, "Moonrise Kingdom" tells the story of two 12 year-olds who fall in love, make a secret pact, and run away together. As various authorities try to hunt them down, a violent storm is brewing offshore. The lazy idyll of a summer island community is turned upside down in every which way.
