Free screening of new Sutro Baths documentary at Richmond Library, Jan. 18

This Wednesday, the Richmond District branch library will host a free screening of the new documentary “Sutro’s: The Palace at Lands End”, directed by Tom Wyrsch. He was also the director behind the “Remembing Playland” documentary that came out last year.

The film is a nostalgic trip back in time told by historians and the people that experienced Sutro Baths and its museums through interviews, film footage, and hundreds of photographs. The entire film will be shown (84 minutes), followed by a Q&A with Director Tom Wyrsch afterwards.

The event begins at 6:30pm at the Richmond Branch Library, 351 9th Avenue.

If you can’t make it to the free screening, both of Wyrsch’s films are playing at the Balboa Theater as a double feature this Saturday and Sunday (Jan. 21-22). On each day, “Remembering Playland” plays at 11:15am, followed by “Sutro’s: The Palace at Lands End” at 12:30pm.
