Galena Territory

Sponsored film made for the Branigar Organization, developers of The Galena Territory, a semi-private recreational, residential and resort community in the northwest part of Illinois. The film emphasizes the natural beauty of the land, contrasting the area's rolling hills with Illinois' reputation as being "flat" (the Galena Territory is located within the Driftless Region, characterized by its unique geological landscape that was spared from glacial flattening during the last ice age). The Branigar Organization began acquiring land for the formation of The Galena Territory in 1970.
