Docs+Science = science and film

Krakow Film Foundation, together with the Foundation for AGH invite you for the fourth edition of the screenings of the most interesting science documentary films and meetings with experts within the frames of the series Docs+Science, held within the frames of the 57th Krakow Film Festival.

 

 

In the programme, intriguing documentaries about science, discoveries, innovations; but also films about the people who create science – scientists, enthusiasts and discoverers. This year’s films from all around the world are, among others, attempts to answer the questions bothering humanity, questions which keep on returning in the context of the developing technologies.

 

How do the biobanks, which store the genes of millions of organisms, really work? What secrets are hidden in the subglacial Lake Vostok? Is it possible to build a sun on Earth, which will provide us with clean and cheap energy? Can the software OpenCog really model human mind? What would we do if we did not have to work? What are the causes of economic collapses? We will also learn how environmental changes can influence traditional communities of Faroe Islands and we will try to unravel the mystery of 25 paintings by Hieronymus Bosch. We will also visit the primeval forest at the foot of Kriváň in the High Tatras.
