The film “Decoding the Driftless” drew a large crowd to Winona State’s Somsen Hall as part of the annual Frozen River Film Festival.

George Howe and Tim Jacobson appear in the film as experts on the biology and geology of the Driftless region, and they were also involved in the direction, production, and marketing of the film.

Howe and Jacobson teamed up with Jonas Stenstrom and Rob Nelson of “Untamed Science” to expand their earlier short film, “Mysteries of the Driftless”, into a full length feature.

After the screening and a lively Q & A session, Howe and Jacobson spoke to Coco and Joe Costello of Cotter Teen Press about the film.
