9 April
10:30 - 12:00
Musée du Léman
Free without reservation
Discussion in English
From the outset, an entire branch of documentary filmmaking, eager to show the invisible by inventing new filming techniques, had scientific aims. But today, the researchers themselves have become the heroes of stories featuring contemporary science. How do the filmmakers of the real world today take hold of the « scientific » – literally and figuratively, to transform it into a cinematic adventure?
Speakers:
Jem Cohen (dir. Little, Big and Far)
Candela Sotos (dir. Yrupe)
Jeffrey Zablotny (dir. Messengers)
Saarlotta Virri (dir. Memories Move Like Distant Islands)
Courtney Stephens (dir. John Lilly and the Earth Coincidence Control Office)
