Airstream, manufacturer of the iconic Airstream® travel trailer, will now be presented on the big screen with the official release of ALUMINATION. Narrated by Kate Pierson of The B-52s, ALUMINATION is an independently produced, 69-minute documentary that will undoubtedly stir the age-old desire to pack up and discover what lies beyond the next range of hills.
Now officially available on VIMEO, ALUMINATION chronicles the origins of Airstream and the importance of travel and exploration to Airstream’s founder, Wally Byam. Presented by Silverstream Filmworks and produced by Lisa Hughes and Allison Light, with Eric Bricker as the director, ALUMINATION is poised to captivate audiences by celebrating the essence of travel. It transcends the mere destination, emphasizing the profound significance of the journey itself, all while drawing inspiration from Airstream’s storied history as the manufacturer of the “iconic riveted aluminum travel trailers.”
“This film presents an unparalleled opportunity to explore the evolution of Airstream and the brand’s immense impact on modern-day travel,” said Bob Wheeler, President and CEO of Airstream. “We couldn’t be more proud to be a part of this film and to celebrate our rich heritage as we continue to ignite the spirit of exploration, encouraging travelers to go beyond the ordinary with Airstream.”
