Join us for a special screening of Sod & Stubble on May 16 at 6 PM, followed by a discussion with director Ken Spurgeon, members of the cast and crew, and moderated by local filmmaker Kiki Bush.

Sod & Stubble is playing May 16-19 at the Art Center Cinema.

You might recognize filming locations! Filming took place on the Miller Farm, which is located between Downs and Cawker City, Old Cowtown Museum in Wichita and the Butler County Historical Society Home of the Kansas Oil Museum in El Dorado. Additionally, the film was shot in Osborne County.

Sod and Stubble is the story of a German immigrant Henry Ise and his devoted wife, Rosie Haag Ise who with tenacity and devotion fight to craft a home for their family on the plains of Kansas.
Based on the book by the same name, written by John Ise with additional material by Von Rothenberger, Sod and Stubble has been remembered by some as a “non-fiction novel” that provides the readers with a realism rarely delivered.
