    Description:

    Here’s your chance to see the magnificent feature-length documentary, “Messengers,” by Canadian director Jeffrey Zablotny. The film is a poetic exploration of three subterranean telescopes in remote regions of Canada, Japan, and Antarctica that reveal a new way of perceiving the universe from within.

    ‘Messengers’ was shot in cooperation with the groundbreaking particle physics collaborations SNO+ (Canada), Super Kamiokande (Japan), and IceCube (Antarctica). As each surreal subterranean facility is explored in order of physical size, the film gradually reveals how these environments not only intersect with the natural world, but can also be seen as extensions of the unconscious mind – monuments to our questions about the universe. Following the journey of neutrinos from a black hole, ‘Messengers’ serves as a tactile meditation on human scientific endeavour, the vastness of geologic time, and the shadowy depths of the unconscious.

    The film will start at roughly 7:50 PM, following our mural unveiling and artist talk event.
