Sedona AZ (November 30, 2019) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of the acclaimed new film “The Aeronauts” Dec. 6-12 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
“The Aeronauts” stars Academy Award-winner Eddie Redmayne and Academy Award-nominee Felicity Jones.
In 1862, daredevil balloon pilot Amelia Wren (Felicity Jones) teams up with pioneering meteorologist James Glaisher (Eddie Redmayne) to advance human knowledge of the weather and fly higher than anyone in history.
While breaking records and furthering scientific discovery, their voyage to the very edge of existence helps the unlikely pair discover things about themselves and each other that helps them find their place in the world they have left far below them. But they face physical and emotional challenges in the thin air, as the ascent becomes a fight for survival.
Felicity Jones is best known for her Academy Award, BAFTA, SAG and Golden Globe-nominated starring role opposite Eddie Redmayne in James Marsh’s “The Theory of Everything”. Most recently, Jones starred as Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in biopic “On the Basis of Sex”, directed by Mimi Leder from a Daniel Stiepleman script.
