Description
Gattaca-Screens

As part of the BFI's Sci-fi Days of Fear and Wonder Festival, the University of Nottingham is delighted to be working with Broadway Media Centre to look at the science in Science Fiction and just what scares us all.

This event will bring together a team of scientists and scholars to explore what fascinates us about Science Fiction and explores where the science is in key tropes from Sci-fi. The panel talk on Perspectives on Science Fiction will be followed by an introduction to Gattaca, by Dr John Marks, with the showing of Gattaca (106 mins) to begin at 2pm.
