Last Things (35mm)

Co-presented by Canyon Cinema.

Last Things examines evolution and extinction from the perspective of the rocks and minerals that came before humanity and will outlast us. With scientists and thinkers like Lynn Margulis and Marcia Bjørnerud as guides and quoting from the proto-Sci-fi texts of J.H. Rosny, Stratman offers a stunning array of images, from microscopic forms to vast landscapes, and seeks a picture of evolution without humans at the center.

“An entrancing blend of hard science and ephemeral existentialism.” -Michael Fox, KQED
