There’s no doubt that these theaters will fill up fast! (Because…FREE movies!) So be sure to get there really early. Seating will be first come, first served.
Check out the movie screening schedule:

Shipwrecked is a new 4D immersive theater experience produced by the Bullock Texas State History Museum in conjunction with award-winning production house Cortina Productions. Shipwrecked follows the perilous journey of the French explorer Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle who sailed west to establish a colony at the mouth of the Mississippi River in 1684. Commissioned by King Louis XIV, the expedition could have given the French a stronger presence in North America if successful, but piracy, poor navigation, and murder eventually doomed the expedition. In response, Spain renewed its interest in what would become Texas, changing the course of history. Dramatizing the story of La Salle’s ill-fated venture, the film reveals the personalities and struggles that beset the colony, all through the eyes of one of the few survivors of the expedition, 14-year old Pierre Talon. Premiering in the Bullock Museum’s Texas Spirit Theater, Shipwrecked uses 4D effects felt by the audience to create a dynamic film experience. The film opens in conjunction with a new special exhibition, La Belle: The Ship That Changed History, on view at the Bullock Museum through May 17, 2015. Runtime: 21 minutes.
An ex circus legend, known as Popovich, is struggling as a street performer but content to come home to his junkyard full of furry friends. After a disingenuous neighbor surreptitiously calls animal control on him, Popovich must find a way to stay true to his calling, and save his loyal family of animal friends from a sad fate. Understanding the brevity of the situation, Popovich and his animal buddies use all their circus tricks to save their home and stay together. Runtime 90 minutes.
* The whole cast of Popovich and the Voice of the Fabled American West will also be in attendance, including Rex the dog and Sebastian the cat who will be performing at the film screening.
Have fun!

I’m looking at the free screening for Big Hero 6, and I see it says OCTOBER 25. But when you click the link for the galaxy highland 10 it says Sunday October 26. Can you confirm which one is right?

Thank you for pointing that out! I just double-checked the Austin Film Festival page, and it is Saturday, Oct. 25th. We’ll fix that on our end.
