Putting cinema-science into perspective
Monday 5 September 2011 - Monday 5 March 2012
In association with SciScreen and the British Science Association, we are proud to announce a series of brilliant films, presentations and discussions which will look into the scientific issues that provide the backbone to many of cinema's best-loved creations.
Each film will be preceded by a short talk in which experts explain the science from the film. Please join us for discussion with drinks and snacks after the film.
