The Book Catapult welcomes explorer Kristen Jokinen, author of Joy Ride: A Bike Odyssey from Alaska to Argentina on Saturday, June 17 at 5 p.m.! Explorers Kristen and Ville Jokinen met and fell in love while scuba diving in Vietnam. Ville then left his native Finland to join Kristen in Oregon and together they embarked on a life-changing two-year cycling adventure covering 18,000 miles from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to Ushuaia, Argentina. Despite never having cycled further than around the block, they persevered unrelenting, punishing rain and wind, altitude sickness, dog attacks, bike accidents, and countless flat tires to cycle between the ends of the earth. Kristen and Ville believe that kindness connects us to our shared humanity. They held babies, attended quinceañeras, drank pulque, played soccer, and visited schools. People in Mexico, Central America, and South America invited them into their hearts and homes, allowed them to camp in their fields and farms, and acted as personal tour guides. Kristen and Ville are love on wheels, and who doesn’t need a little more love in their lives? Related links: The Book Catapult website | Instagram | Facebook

The event will feature a total of 34 films; 11 feature films, 19 shorts, and 4 animated short films. Opening night will be held June 8 at MOPA in Balboa Park screening "THE WATER WALKER" with Oceanside-born Producer Stevie Salas in attendance and "WHO ARE THE MARCUSES?" with Director Matthew Mishory in attendance. ABOUT THE FILMS: "THE WATER WALKER" is a documentary-animation hybrid that illustrates the journey of an Indigenous youth climate activist, Autumn Peltier. Narrated by Indigenous Hollywood icon Graham Greene, "THE WATER WALKER" is a stunning documentary-animation hybrid tracing the roots, passion and perseverance of leading Indigenous youth climate activist, Autumn Peltier. "WHO ARE THE MARCUSES?" is Matthew Mishory’s feature documentary about a mysterious and unlikely pair of philanthropists: the unassuming Long Island couple and Holocaust refugees Lottie and Howard Marcus, whose half a billion-dollar gift to Ben-Gurion University in Israel—the single largest charitable donation to the State of Israel in its history—inspired peace and climate action through water technology. The film features Warren Buffett and Israeli President Isaac Herzog, among others. Blue Water Film Festival on Facebook
