The Science Communication Lab is proud to present the North American Premiere of their upcoming feature film, OBSERVER, for the NSTA community! Be one of the first people in the world to see this poetic and thought-provoking film and chat with the filmmakers after the screening at the Q&A.

The Science Communication Lab engages students and the public through award-winning films that captivate and inspire a deeper connection to science. Visit our Movie Theater Booth #681 to find out more about the film and our free content for educators!

About the Film: In OBSERVER, filmmaker Ian Cheney embarks on an experiment in which he brings a series of keen-eyed observers - scientists, artists, a hunter - to a range of locations around the world, often without telling them where they are going, and asks them simply to describe what they see. What unfolds is a deep exploration and celebration of the power of observation: what happens when you find new ways to sense and perceive the world around you? With customary whimsy and a small painted red square that Cheney brings on every journey, the film is an invitation to viewers to find beauty and meaning in even the most quotidian of locales.

SPEAKERS:
Sarah Goodwin, Elliot Kirschner, Ian Cheney, Shannon Behrman, Ben Riggs
