Among the most acclaimed of these visual interpreters is Barbara Van Cleve\, who\, at the age of 91\,  is still revealing how ranch people endure while the world rapidly changes around them. Van Cleve\, who grew up on a ranch in Big Timber before setting out to the wider world\, transformed the photography of the West through an independent life and vision that celebrated both the beauty of the land and the resilience of its people\, especially women. \nFrom her youth on the family’s ranch in Big Timber to her emergence at midlife as a chronicler of the transformation of the contemporary American West\, she followed her own creative path\, including a decades-long professional and personal relationship with another woman. Moving back to Big Timber later in life\, she continued to embrace her roles as an independent artist\, an advocate for ranch women\, and an unabashed leader in a photographic genre long considered the domain of men. She also experienced the haunting losses and memories that accompany aging. \nThese emotions all brought a new strength to her life and work. She will discuss these experiences\, which are documented in the film\, during the Q&A. \nBarbara Van Cleve has won multiple honors for her work\, which is in museums and collections throughout the United States\, including the CM Russell Museum\, the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame\, the Montana Historical Society\, New Mexico Museum of Art\, and many others. \nAbout the Filmmakers \nCynthia Matty-Huber – Director-Producer- Cinematographer \nCynthia Matty-Huber\, a resident of Livingston\, Montana\, is known for her films that capture the American West’s rugged beauty and vanishing lifestyles. Cynthia transitioned into documentary filmmaking with an extensive background in photography already under her belt.

The second film I Am Still Here (2019)\, was nominated for Best Documentary Short at the Big Sky Film Festival. The third and final installment in the series\, For Love of the Land (2021)\, received critical acclaim at festivals across the country.
