Hubert Humphrey Documentary

Production of the Humphrey documentary "The Art of the Possible"

FILMING AT THE SODERLUND PHARMACY MUSEUM

PBS created a documentary about the life of Hubert H. Humphrey, one of Minnesota's favorite sons. Humphrey grew up in a drugstore in the first part of the 20th century and eventually became a pharmacist just like his father.

His life was shaped by listening to his father and others from the small rural town in North Dakota discuss politics.
Hubert H. Humphrey was a US senator and the vice president and a civil rights leader. He was also a pharmacist so in a way Humphrey has a connection to the Soderlund Pharmacy Museum.


Mick Caouette and his production crew as well as the cast of characters put on quite a show during their filming at Soderlund Village Drug. We were honoured that they chose to use the Soderlund Pharmacy Museum as the background for their film!

The name of the film is "The Art of the Possible"
