Your Astronauts

Directed by Tom Palazzolo

On August 13, 1969 thousands of Chicagolandians flocked to downtown Chicago to get a glimpse of the first humans on the Moon (Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin, Jr.). Chicago Filmmaker Tom Palazzolo captures the Chicago Apollo 11 Parade with wit and charm, highlighting the hoards of suburbanites who made the journey into the city.
