The Meteor (2024)

인간은 자신을 둘러싼 거대한 세계를 얼마나 이해하고 있는가. 물리학에서 심리학까지, 다양한 분야의 과학자 9명이 인류의 가장 근원적인 물음을 던진다. 이 세상은 무엇으로 이루어져 있는가, 의식이란 무엇인가, 생명은 어디서 왔는가.

미세한 세계도 인간의 드라마만큼이나 감동적이다. 상공에서 초원까지 급강하하는 카메라에는 이름 모를 수많은 벌레들의 희로애락과 생존경쟁이 펼쳐진다. 나방 애벌레들이 일렬로 나란히 줄 지어 꿈틀대며 행진하고, 촉촉한 이끼 위에서 슬그머니 다가선 두 달팽이가 사랑을 나누고, 쏟아지는 비 한방울 한방울이 이들에겐 폭포수의 크기로 다가온다. 이들에게 두려움의 대상은 예상 외로 너무나 작고 하찮은 것들이다. 커다란 이슬방울은 곤충들의 앞길을 가로막고 빗방울의 추락은 거대한 폭탄세례와도 같다.

Before the joint NASA/ESA Cassini-Huygens mission, humanity only knew what had been learned, decades earlier, with the previous limited, rapid "fly-by" Pioneer and Voyager missions. Cassini-Huygens spent more than 13 years in wildly varied orbits around Saturn, allowing the spacecraft to pass near many of its moons, as well as execute a soft-landing of its Huygens lander on the moon Titan. By mission end, it accumulated a mountain of imagery and scientific data that will continue to be studied for years to come. This film is a testament to the amazing efforts of the scientists who planned and executed the mission. It combines breathtaking images, movies, and a variety of animations to take the viewer into Saturn's complex system of rings and moons, as well as stepping viewers through some of the more exciting scientific discoveries made over the course of the elaborately complex mission.

One entry in a series of films produced to make science accessible to the masses—especially children—this film describes the sun in scientific but entertaining terms.

In today's climate debate, there is only one factor that cannot be calculated in climate models - humans. How can we nevertheless understand our role in the climate system and manage the crisis? Climate change is a complex global problem. Increasingly extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and more difficult living conditions - including for us humans - are already the order of the day. Global society has never faced such a complex challenge. For young people in particular, the frightening climate scenarios will be a reality in the future. For the global south, it is already today. To overcome this crisis, different perspectives are needed. "THE UNPREDICTABLE FACTOR" goes back to the origins of the German environmental movement, accompanies today's activists in the Rhineland in their fight against the coal industry and gives a voice to scientists from climate research, ethnology and psychology.

It is the birth of neutrino astronomy. For the first time, astrophysicists can detect extra-terrestrial neutrinos in ice on the South Pole. The fundamental questions of science remain unanswered., how did the universe come to be? What keeps our world together? The newly discovered extra-galactic neutrinos may hold the keys to answering these questions.

The discovery of neuroplasticity, the fact that thoughts can change the structure and function of our brains, even into old age, is one of the most important breakthroughs in our understanding of the brain in recent times. In The Brain That Changes Itself, Dr Norman Doidge explores the profound implications of the changing brain in a way that will permanently alter the way we look at human possibility and human nature. The documentary examines a blind man who sinks a basketball; a woman with half a brain who leads a normal life; learning disorders, strokes and brain traumas that are improved and cured; and chronic pain that is alleviated. The vast expanse of the brain's possibility is still unrealized.

Near the cold Pyrenees of Iberia, surrounded by ancient and dark green forests, lies a strange land where the rain is scarce and the wind is always blowing. The soil is poor, there are no trees and the landscape resembles the moon. Is this what the future of desertification will look like? Incredible creatures with surprising behavior live in this strange landscape. The documentary explores a place with very dry skin but a wet hidden heart where even waterfowl or amphibians can live. Living in such conditions is not easy and only the toughest animals will survive.

A crash course in the professional and scientific work related to the field of venomous herpetology. The film covers diverse topics, including biochemistry, biology, law and public policy, conservation, venom collection, animal husbandry, antivenom production, emergency medicine, veterinary medicine, toxicology and toxinology. The film follows the personal and working lives of prominent experts in the field, beginning with their childhood interest through their professional careers, with particular emphasis on the sciences related to their work.

Is Genesis History? is a fascinating new look at the biblical, historical, and scientific evidence for Creation and the Flood. Learn from more than a dozen scientists and scholars as they explore the world around us in light of Genesis. Dr. Del Tackett, creator of "The Truth Project," hikes through canyons, climbs up mountains, and dives below the sea in an exploration of two competing views... one compelling truth.

운석과 유성, 혜성 탐사선, 크레이터 등 신기하고 복잡한 우주의 원리와 이와 관련한 문화를 탐구한다. 영화는 별들이 보내는 메시지의 의미를 파악하기 위해 대륙을 횡단하는 특별한 여정으로 관객들을 초대한다. 남극의 블루아이스 고원에서 운석을 찾아다니는 한국 연구팀을 따라가고, 호주 원주민들이 유성과 크레이터를 숭배하는 이유를 들어본다. 더불어 영화는 오래된 운석 소장품을 큐레이팅하는 바티칸 천문대까지 찾아가, 교황청 소속 천문학자와도 만날 수 있는 기회를 제공한다. (서울환경영화제)

With a million species at risk of extinction, Sir David Attenborough explores how this crisis of biodiversity has consequences for us all, threatening food and water security, undermining our ability to control our climate and even putting us at greater risk of pandemic diseases.
